Best as in like most tech/durable? Brands like Patagonia and the north face make a very high quality product. unfortunately, they also get very expensive.
and no, trew is not. neither is saga

I have been really impressed with my Saga pants.  They are super waterproof and durable.  Plus they look dope and the colors are awesome.  They are a big step up in quality from a couple years ago.  I have had Patagonia, high end Burton, Sessions, and Oakley pants, but these are my all time favorites.  No rips, tears, or anything and I really like the waterproof zippers.  The breathability is amazing and I have had no issues with the waterproofing, but I do live in the Rockies where it's not that wet.

I love my Oakley intents. Nice and baggy with a tOn of pockets. In the back of your heels they have these snaps to clip your pants so you dont cut them when your walking. Warm but have a bunch of vents for spring days. They also have an adjustable waist with a cool grippy inner waistband. Very pleased with them.

sorry, but no, its not, maybe when trew steps it up to a real gortex pro shell, but at the time, no its not anywhere close to the best

They were $175 which is pretty standard for most pants that I've owned. They aren't the completely high end ones

Another vote for Trew bibs. I smashed the shit out of my leg on a rock, broke femur, pants didnt have a mark on them. Never got wet, even in rain.

My friend has oakley primed pants and they are insane he dropped them into his pool and they were dry ( dont know how the inside didn't get wet but whatever) but they are 450$ so he only got them because Oakley gave him a 300$ certificate for a dysfunctional product but if you have the bank I'd recommend them

Thats perhaps the worst real world test to prove quality I've ever heard of.
