Capes (previously known as cloaks) are extremely rare vanity items and are worn in addition to the player's skin. There is currently no way to obtain a cape on one's own, although there are various client mods that allow players to obtain one, only visible to that player (or in some cases, other users of that mod). On the Console Edition some skins from various skin packs have capes. Players on PC who legitimately have more than one cape can choose between which to wear by going to their profile on Minecraft.net.

Trail

  • The cape texture model is the same as the Elytra texture model in the resource pack.
    • However using the Elytra texture model for a cape will not make the Elytra a cape, as the Elytra entity itself is different from a cape.

Unused MineCon 2011 capes

These capes were featured in a poll where MineCon 2011 attendees could vote for their cape of choice. The red creeper cape won MineCon 2011, and the blue cape with the pickaxe was for MineCon 2012. These following capes are still unused though may appear in the future.[30]

== Usage ==
Horse saddles worked just like regular [[saddle]]s, but for [[horse]]s instead of [[pig]]s. Taming a horse was required before putting a horse saddle on it. Unlike any other items, horse saddles could be stacked up to 32.
