But why would they wear it in Itachi memory when Itachi wasn't a proud member of the Akatsuki, it as part of his mission and he didn't agree with what the group goal was. But if that's the case then either the hooded man has little knowledge about what was really going down with Itachi or he's just using that as an excuse to control the "boy with the Sharingan".
