If clothes make the man, then the horse clothing also makes the horse. Just as we human beings wear clothes to protect ourselves from the elements and to generally look presentable, so must horse handlers also take care of their horses' appearance, health and well-being.
The clothes that horses wear usually come in the form of sheets or blankets. The former are lighter, more "breathable" (thanks to their nylon construction) kinds of blankets that serve the same general purpose as their heavier counterparts: to keep the animal cool during warmer months and warm during cooler months.
Sometimes, horses are equipped with special kinds of sheets for specific situations. For example, horse clothing such as fly sheets protects the horse from flies and other insects that annoy it.
Coolers are sheets made of cotton, fleece or wool that help the mount feel exactly that after an intense workout. For the horse that's still warming up for the workout or competitive event, however, the rider or handler usually turns to quarter sheets to help loosen up a horse's muscles in colder temperatures.
If people need towels and cotton clothes to deal with perspiration, then horses need anti-sweat sheets that help absorb moisture. After all is said and done, clothing choices all boil down to a common consideration between human and horse: comfort. When looking to buy sheets, blankets and other pieces of horse clothing and accessories, it is important that they do not only look good, but also feel good for the horse.
