Etymology
From French équiper (“to supply, fit out”), originally said of a ship, Old French esquiper (“to embark”); of Germanic origin, most probably from Proto-Germanic *skip?n? (“to ship, sail, embark”); akin to Gothic ???????????????? (skip, “ship”). Compare with Old High German scif, German Schiff, Icelandic skip, Old English scip (“ship”), Old Norse skipja (“to fit out a ship”). See ship.
Meanings of its derivative "equipage" may have been influenced by Latin equus = "horse".
