Can you wear a magic shirt and a magic pair of shorts if both are different types of
Or would they be considered as ONE "suit" of "armor"?

Technically he looks like he's wearing a loin cloth or something similar but I'd like to change it to shorts/swim shorts.
Msybe one take up the armor slot and the other be something else separate? Like wearing a chain shirt for armor but your lower body is still covered by something?

A magic shirt more typically occupies the Torso body slot than the Body body slot. Magic shorts should probably occupy the Waist body slot, but none have ever been printed, to my knowledge.

FWIW, Oriental Adventures have magical hakama ("knee-length trousers"), which occupy the cloak body slot

Re: Can you wear a magic shirt and a magic pair of shorts if both are different types
They mention them taking up the same space as a cloak, cape,mantle, haori, or happi. However a search of my pdf shows no magic pants have been printed.
On a side note, I always thought that this little quirk would be a fun adventure. A wizard finds ancient writings about/ discovers an ancient pair/ creates the first pair of magic pants and thus the magic item slot for them as well. Why was this magical knowledge hidden away? What will kingdoms do to get that extra edge? Who locked the ability to enchant pants away in the first place and what else are they hiding? Denim or khakis?!

They intended to cosmetically convert items to more "oriental" look:

Re: Can you wear a magic shirt and a magic pair of shorts if both are different types
The BoEF puts pants as the body slot. If you go piecemeal from PF, it can sort of count as one of the three body slots you get from doing that. IIRC, only the best enchantment applies though I could be wrong. Still, combine it with 3.5 mundane enhancements for +3 AC is nice for making very expensive armor based on looks. Strapped up all in leather with a +5 AC before magic is nice, but expensive.

Long have I dismayed at the lack of magic pants in D&D.

Re: Can you wear a magic shirt and a magic pair of shorts if both are different types
Maybe D&D is modeled on one of the periods in history when nobody wore pants?
Now that I think about it though, are there any magic socks, stockings, leggings, togas, kilts, skirts, or dresses?My Perpetually-Unfinished Homebrew: Tier-3 Class Suite, Homestuck Races for Pathfinder, Homestuck Races for 5e, Psionic Class Redux

I mean, depending on how large the shorts are, they may take the ring slots.

Re: Can you wear a magic shirt and a magic pair of shorts if both are different types
The rules don't really give guidance due to a lack of magical pants.
A separate pants slot makes sense but so does combining both into a body slot.
I've ruled magic pants as slotless in the past but a pants slot is cleaner since you don't have to rule on the practicalities of layering.I am rel.

To quote a wise man
Also, Fighting Trousers are a thing in my games: https://forums.giantitp.com/showsing...6&postcount=12
I thought this too, but pants definitely exist in 3E. In Arms & Equipment Guide p.29, table 2-2 has pricing for mundane pants/breeches of various materials.
In RoD, the Sharakim are noted to favour "finely made shirts and pants"
Heck, even in the PHB, both the artisans outfit and cold weather outfit both mention pants.My winning competition entries: Kinvig Arrumskor | The Great Pumpkinhead | Wynfrith d'Acker

In Ancient/Classical Greek and Romans era, wearing short leather skirts was the norm.
