Only Ancient Horse Gear Has Special Effects

Basically, Horse Gear only changes the appearance and does not have any additional effect, except for the Ancient Horse Gear from the second DLC. It increases the number of times yuo can dash and will allow you to whistle to summon the horse from any location, so if you often travel by Horse, it's best to equip it.
