Armor (such as boots, helmet etc) gets stuck in the dedicated armor slot, but cannot be unequipped

While playing on my world, I have frost walker boots. These boots interfere with a bubble elevator that I made, so I take them off to make sure that the water does not freeze below me when I arrive at the top (These boots do not have Curse of Binding.) In some situations, when I try to unequip the boots, they get stuck in the "boots" slot. It looks like the boots try to unequip, but when doing so, they are reequipped almost instantly. I tried to quick move them, as well as trying to drag the boots off manually, but it never seems to work. The only way for me to unequip the boots is to quit the world, and reload it, doing this then allows me to quick move the boots out of the slot, and into the general inventory. It is not the most game breaking bug in the world, but it really messes with you when you are in between a project or build.
