Twill is pretty good for pants and dries faster than denim.

Denim is just a specific type of twill that's made from cotton. Fiber type is generally more relevant than how it's woven.

Ah, thank you for pointing that out. I think maybe the word I meant was chino. Which is also a twill made from cotton, but using finer threads. Or so Google tells me.
