Horse Gear

is equipment that can be equipped on Link's Horse in. Horse Gear consists of a Bridle and a Saddle, and can provide various effects.

Location and Uses
With the exception of the Stable Bridle and Stable Saddle, all pieces of Horse Gear are Key Items, and can be found under this screen in the Inventory.

Link can equip Horse Gear to a Horse at a stable by bringing it to the NPC feeding horses by the side of the stable, and talking to them. This character can also change a Horse's mane. Link must have a maximum bond with his Horse for the character to change the Horse's equipment. Epona and the Giant Horse are the only Horses to which Horse Gear cannot be equipped. Not all stables have a character who can change equipment; Horse Gear can be changed at the following stables:

Horse Gear can be gained through different means. Some is rewarded as a prize for winning a mini-game, such as the Knight's Bridle and Knight's Saddle for winning the minigame at the Horseback Archery Range. The Monster Bridle and Monster Saddle can be bought from Kilton, while the Ancient Bridle and Ancient Saddle are found in Side Quests available in the Champion's Ballad DLC.

With the exception of the Ancient Bridle and Ancient Saddle, all Horse Gear is purely cosmetic and does not provide any effects.
