Drawers

/ˈdrɔːrz/ noun

Sliding compartments in furniture that can be pulled out for storage. Also, an archaic term for undergarments, particularly underpants.

From Middle English 'drawer', from the verb 'draw' (to pull). The furniture sense emerged in the 16th century, while the undergarment meaning developed because these garments were 'drawn on' or pulled up the legs.
