i dont think they do the extreems in hi viz - only the vents as far as i know.  I got really good mileage out of my extreems - and great for ground work and in winter. 

 

Try the black ventilation u won't go back

I’ve been in and out of Pfanners over the years but sadly my last pair were the ‘vents’ and I was very disappointed with the quality of the outer. It pulled and puckered very early on and the whole cut of the trouser went pretty mis-shapen and baggy prematurely.
I have been in a pair of Breathflex Pro since Feb and would say that they’re the best trouser (possibly) that I’ve owned (over 20+ pairs )
The normal Breathflex I thought were terrible but these Pros are brilliant .
A slim cut though if you’re a big lad and if you wear braces there’s an issue with the cord brace attachments wearing prematurely but there’s always the button option .
They truly are a well thought out design made with some quality materials .

How tall are you? I tried Pfanners on but I wasn't convinced about the cut even though there is a long leg version. In the end I went for Breathflex Pro long leg, they have lasted really well so far. Different materials to the Breathflex which fall apart if you stare at them too hard.

My extremes are long leg and so are my mates ventilation. no issue with the leg length at 6ft 3 (6ft 4 after a visit to the chiropractor)

For any future folk hunting for info.. I got the pfanner black vent type As...decent fit, bit snug but they will loosen a bit. Good flexibility, feel like they will last year's...bit toasty but then its August and 27C so most things are gonna feel toasty...but found husky tech extremes more airy than these vents but tech extremes are made from tissue paper.

Never had any pfanner, how are they for sizing? I'm usually XL but some cutting trousers like sip are quite small for an XL.

Just going to add pfanner have got the zips all wrong. Those on the leg vents sit under the harness leg pads when open and get mashed into the back of the thigh...the waist pockets are also placed in away that can be uncomfortable in the harness.... but mostly its the leg vents... shame as otherwise they are really nice
