An armour made for centaurs, to wear over their equine half. Centaur bardings are a type of armor intended for centaurs to wear in place of boots, which do not fit on their horse-shaped lower halves.
The only negative impact is a loss of 2 points to your evasion, which can not be reduced by a high armor skill. Centaurs could successfully wear something like Tudor trunk hose.
They were made in three parts : The trunks, which are shorts basically, and where the idea of swim trunks comes from. And the hose which were attached to the bottom of trunks using fabric tapes.
In the books, Centaurs are described as they are in traditional Greek myths, with the back-end of a horse, but an ordinary human face and torso in their upper parts. Centaurs are amongst us in modern-day society, but for the sake of decency they wear pants when in public. Ask Question. Asked 5 years, 8 months ago.

From what I know about centaurs and the field of trouser engineering this carries a few problems: Centaurs can't reach back far enough to pull their pants up over their rears and they don't always have someone nearby to help them, so they need some kind of tool that allows them to do this.
Failing that, they need a system different from what humans use to fasten their pants. Centaurs have tails. It is uncomfortable to tuck them into their pants, so there bust be a hole for the tail. Said pants must cover all of their legs, for both they and the humans decided that pants that just cover the hind legs would look silly. If possible centaur pants are a single piece, but if there is no other way there could be front pants and back pants: the front pants are put on first with a waist around the horse body that goes a bit towards the back, and the back pants have their waist go over this.
It's like tucking your shirt into your pants. But instead of a shirt you tuck your pants into your pants. In case that a centaur needs to use the bathroom, the pants must be able to be loosened so that they can use the toilet with ease.
Toilet stalls and other such places are large enough to accommodate a centaur, but having enough space to completely remove the pants might be difficult imagine removing your own pants in a rather small toilet stall. Whatever such a toilet might look like is for another question. They have horse "bits" in the back, but not human "bits" in the front. So in the front there's only the usual muscle and skin there.
Hooves need not to be covered. These are pants, not horse shoes. But they need to fit over them. Improve this question.

They'll claim it's just the human's feelings of inadequacy driving them to oppress the natural state of their neighbors. And I'd expect women to have shirts. But they wouldn't really cover up their horsy parts, especially since regular horses never wear clothes and people see them all the time.
Since you say "amongst us," my first thought is that you mean to restrict answers to modern-day technology, no magic, but it might be better to specify this explicitly in the question.

Really, only three technical innovations seem necessary to make horse centaur pants as convenient as possible: Red suspenders.
You don't usually wear pants on your back, right? Bell bottoms and overall looser fit to get around hooves, knobby knees, etc. A cutout at the back so that the normal horse centaur defecation method is unlikely to result in unsightly skid marks. And now, a word about urination Perhaps surprisingly, urination is the tricky part. How to get into them? As such, there are many businesses and estates which will flatly deny access to centaurs when faced with one.
Worse, other races, particularly humans, tend to gawk and stereotype centaurs. Part of this is due to their nudity, and can be remedied by dressing oneself, though at some expense, as few tailors study the art of clothing a horse and man as one. Still though, their unusual appearance and strange customs make it difficult for them to homogenize. Ennorath Wiki Explore. Wiki Content. Explore Wikis Community Central.

Centaurs were also natural born Seers , in particular the centaur Firenze who taught alongside Sybill Trelawney in Divination class at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Centaurs were known to be gifted in Divination. Indeed, the centaurs of the Forbidden Forest regularly made vague allusions to seeing the future, as when the centaur Firenze told Harry Potter that they were fated to meet again, and when he and Bane spoke of the "intermission" of sorts, between the First and Second Wizarding Wars.
Centaurs on the whole seemed also to be rather proud of their species, which was evident in their testiness whenever anyone even accidentally alluded to them being "used" or in any way employed by humankind, as when Firenze was chastised for allowing Harry Potter to ride to safety on his back, after the young wizard encountered Lord Voldemort in the Forbidden Forest — his fellow centaurs considered allowing such a thing tantamount to becoming a "common mule".
In , they attempted to murder Firenze for his decision to "enter into human servitude", which was seen as a great and base betrayal. Centaurs also seemed to favour nature over technology, the extent of their tools visibly in use being their bows and arrows.
Instead, they cast their attention upon reading signs in nature, and living in forests appropriated by the Ministry of Magic. They were territorial creatures by nature, as Rubeus Hagrid mentioned in upon seeing a herd of centaurs in the Forbidden Forest, whose land was being consistently reduced, and that they might revolt against the Ministry as a result.
Later the same year, they proclaimed that even Hagrid was "no longer welcome" within "their" forest, as he had "forfeited the friendship of the centaurs," and that their "tolerance was waning" in reference to Hagrid's half-brother, Grawp , whom Hagrid was hiding in the forest at the time. Centaurs did have a sense of honour, being unwilling to harm the young, as the herd within the Forbidden Forest refused to harm Hagrid due to the young Harry Potter and Hermione Granger accompanying him at the time.
However, this patience and generosity could wane, as later they saw Harry and Hermione deliberately lead Dolores Umbridge into the forest to "use" the centaurs to eliminate her; this, along with the fact that both teenagers were nearing their adulthood, led the herd to attempt to attack the two. Centaurs did not use wands for magic, but were known to be well-versed in magical healing , Divination , archery, and Astronomy. Centaurs burned herbs such as mallowsweet and sage to refine their stargazing findings.
In fact, the centaur Firenze taught Divination at Hogwarts, starting in the — school year. Centaurs were forest-dwelling, and, in each country where colonies exist, the wizarding authority had set aside land exclusively for their use.
