In Spain, you can use "pantalón" or "pantalones" to mean one single pair of pants/trousers.
"Me he comprado un pantalón" (I've bought a pair of pants)
"Me he comprado unos pantalones" (I've bought a pair of pants)
When you want to make clear you've bought more than one you usually say the exact number.
"Me he comprado dos pantalones" (I've bought two pair of pants)

we understand the word / pants/ to mean underwear, underpants, knickers - that's pantaletas or calzoncillos
