Don't be too rough with each other! We're here to appreciate, and sometimes lightly rib, Tolkien's fantastic creation, and all of its derivative works. Arguments happen, but remember, in the words of Tolkien, that food and cheer and good song are what make a merrier world!

Nah, you need to be wearing the item. Most often require attunement as well (so you can't just stack a ton of magical items on someone, generally you can only attune to three items). So if you take it off, generally the effects go away.
That said, you could easily make the item give you a permanent debuff while attuned and a buff only while wearing it.
Good feedback. The intent is to prevent hot swapping it in combat, so if I used it again I'd probably write something explicit like the benefits require attunement and wearing the hat, and the penalties persist while attuned.
Could just toss on it that it takes an action to put it on or take it off.
