Miscellaneous items, commonly abbreviated as Misc. items, are wearable items with their own 'Misc' section in the loadout screen, though they count as headgear for crafting purposes. Like most hats, they have no effect on gameplay and exist for cosmetic purposes only. As they occupy their own equipment slot, they can be worn in conjunction with hats. Misc. items are either unlocked through achieving certain requirements, or dropped during in-game playtime.
Valve has announced on the June 30, 2011 blog post that there will soon be more than one misc slot and that it will be possible to wear multiple misc items.
In total, there are misc. items.

List of Misc items
Crafting
Because most Misc. items are achievement linked or promotional items, they are generally incompatible with the crafting system. Most of them cannot be crafted into other items, or crafted themselves from other items. The exceptions are Misc. items that can be found in-game through the item drop system, which are treated exactly the same as headgear. As such, they can be crafted in any blueprint that requires headgear to function. These are the current Misc. items that function as headgear, in order of their addition to the game:
- Camera Beard
- Physician's Procedure Mask
- Whiskered Gentleman
- Blighted Beak
- Le Party Phantom
- Sight for Sore Eyes
- Teddy Roosebelt
- Googly Gazer
- Villain's Veil
- Sign of the Wolf's School
- Planeswalker Goggles
- Pocket Medic
- Made Man
- Fancy Dress Uniform
- Prairie Heel Biters
- Big Steel Jaw of Summer Fun
- Security Shades
- Rogue's Col Roule
