147, the problem with that logic is that a tallis kattan is not meyuchad for davening, whereas a tallis gadol is, and that’s why you can’t wear a gadol in the bathroom, but you may wear your kattan. The poshut pshat is that it needs to be a tashmishei kedusha that is also meyuchad for davening. A hat used for davening may be meyuchad, but it’s not inherently considered tashmishei kedusha. The kasha is from a kittel, but I’m not even 100% sure you can’t wear that in the bathroom – the OP claims that’s the case, and since I don’t wear one I’m not in a position to argue. Maybe a kittel is considered tashmishei kedusha because it’s used for burials? I don’t know…
