Pourquoi est-ce feminine ?
Manches is feminine because it derives from Latin "manica" (feminine), which meant "sleeve" or "hand covering," and the feminine gender was preserved as the word evolved into Old French and Modern French. The same Latin root gave us the masculine "manche" (handle), which took a different gender path in French, making the sleeve version an exception to typical gender patterns rather than following a predictable rule.
