What about gloves?
Looking forward to hear a good answer to that because this has puzzled me before!!!
In French, if there is 2 separate items then they are a pair...

because they are all plural....pants. trousers, socks, knickers, shoes.
you can't have a knicker, or pant but you can have a sock or shoes but they come as a pair.
it doesn't work above the waist because they are all singular. shirt, tie, jacket, blouse etc.
You can have two shirts and call them a pair of shirts, but they are singular because you only need to buy one at a time

must be for the pair of leg holes...it dont sound right though saying "i'm going to buy a knicker" does it..
