slang definition?

Can anyone explain панти to me? I know that you can колотить, гонять, собрать, and заценить панти, but I cannot for the life of me figure out what this is supposed to mean. It sounds like salary sometimes, and sometimes like ego, but I'm just baffled. (I've been told that this word is not vulgar, so I apologize if anyone is offended). This may only be regional slang from Ukraine, but all the same, I'd like to know.

Колотить понты? Гонять понты?
sounds strange.

Колотить понты is a perfectly good expression (slang, of course)

ok, seems that I'm just ignorant of some slang expressions.
