Abstract :Historically, horse and equestrian have played an important place in many countries. The horse was used as a vehicle in nomadic communities, in wars, entertainments and races. Turkish domesticated the horse and became the first society to ride horses. Until today, they have used the horse in many games (rahvan, javelin game, horse archery, horse wrestling). The organization of such games have decreased exponentially, yet, international equestrian practices have continued in the world and equestrian types (three-day competition, dressage, show jumping, equestrian endurance, equestrian gymnastics, equestrian riding, reining) have become important. Accordingly, equestrian clothes gained importance and besides the lack of a uniform riding clothing, the clothes varied according to the branches. In this context, the aim of this study is to make literature review on the history of riding, its branches, clothes and the materials used. In addition, the examination of the fabric and model formation of an existing equestrian clothing is also included in the aim of the study.
