You have to be wearing something green like a green shirt or pants in order to be pinch free. Barrets and jewlery do not count.

Happy pinching!

Why do people get pinched on Saint Patricks Day if they do not wear green?
legend says wearing green makes one "invisible" to leprechauns, and apparently, these magical tricksters will pinch anyone who isn't wearing green in honor of the holiday. Nowadays, people simply pinch each other on St. Patrick's Day more as a cute reminder that they are still visible, and are potentially in danger of even more pinches.

In order not to get pinched does the green you are wearing have to be visible or not?
If you are wearing a very minimal amount of green, such as part of a sock, necklace, earring, bracelet, etc, it does not count, and you will rightfully get pinched. However, if you wear a completely green shirt, necklace, bracelet, earring, etc, and it's just hidden (not on purpose, mind you), then if someone pinches you, you are permitted to pinch them back.
