Screenshots
Likely related to a recent update adding a new legs slot, which awarded legs items for some older sets, but no legs slot item for Arcana owners. So I guess it uses the equipped default rather than the Arcana ignoring it due to the base model change.
Lineage The Arch Temptress, should also get a leg slot item, as it changes the color of the default leg item.
#2019 also describes this bug.
I spent some time testing the loadout behaviors, and here is my guess: As far as I can tell what is happening is that both player-made custom sets and Valve-made bundle sets do not contain instruction for the boot slot, because obviously the boot slot was just implemented recently.
End users reading: the solution to this is to equip a different boot, then equip the boot you want for your custom set, then save the set again. This will add an "equip this boot please" instruction to your set. If you use Valve-made bundles on shuffle you may need to make new custom sets until this issue is fixed.
In terms of the 'bug' itself, if the loadout code checked which slots each hero/active persona had available when changing sets and then selected "default" for every slot that the set does not have instruction on, that could fix the problem across the board. This has also previously affected things like taunts, voices, Diretide costumes, et cetera.
