Elytra
When a player has a cape and equips elytra, the elytra take the place of the cape and adopts its design. If the cape texture has no elytra design, it has the default elytra design. Elytra shares the same texture (and layout) as the cape texture. One cannot get a cape by modifying the elytra texture.
