Wear, shift + W, is a command used to wear pieces of armor and shields. Items of armor that layer over the torso must be worn in an 'inner-to-outer' fashion: shirts, then body armor, then cloaks. Use the shift + T command to take off worn armor. Wearing and removing armor takes some time; the number of turns depends on the type of item.

To wear accessories such as rings or amulets, use shift + P to put on the item.

See armor for info on how many turns it takes to equip/unequip items.
