Since when does wearing a brown hoodie convey that one is a genius?
It's supposed to represent Ben Kenobi from the original star wars I think. Or more generally, a wizard-y sage robe.
Edit: it's also just a meme, with its own understood meaning.
I always interpreted it as a person that has devoted their life to the topic of the meme with monk-like devotion.
