'Kay, this does not look good here, um...
The Scout on conflicting equip regions

The equip region is an item attribute in the client schema used to identify the region where an item is attached on a character model. The equip region attribute (denoted by the value name equip_region) is given to all Cosmetic items and some weapons, and its primary purpose is to prevent items in the same region from being equipped simultaneously. Equip regions were introduced to avoid visual clipping errors upon the addition of two usable 'misc' slots. This system was retained when the existing hat and miscellaneous slots were merged into three 'cosmetic' slots as a result of the December 20, 2013 Patch.

There are 68 equip regions in total. The equip regions of cosmetic items and weapons vary, but the vast majority of items that were classed as hats before the cosmetic overhaul have a base equip region of hat or whole_head.

Region conflicts

Equipping two items that have equip regions in both below columns, or two items that have the same region, is not allowed by the game.
