Bareback Horse Riding

Bareback Horse Riding allows players to ride horses without having a saddle. You can take that horse you've just found with you, without having to leave it and look through dungeon chests for a saddle. By default, riding a horse without a saddle will give the player and horse the Slowness effect. You can also enable receiving damage every 15 seconds in the config. Wearing leather pants will prevent the slowness/damage, but lower its durability every time it negates. Everything is configurable and features can be toggled.

Tame functionality remains the same. And a horse can only be steered once it's friendly and tamed.

   All available config options:

A horse can be ridden without a saddle:

Or occasional damage with 'shouldDamageDuringRidingWithoutSaddle' enabled:

 
Wearing leather pants will prevent the slowness/damage from happening. It does use durability:
