  We show that any infinite collection $(\Gamma_n)_{n\in \mathbb N}$ of icc,
hyperbolic, property (T) groups satisfies the following von Neumann algebraic
\emph{infinite product rigidity} phenomenon. If $\Lambda$ is an arbitrary group
such that $L(\oplus_{n\in \mathbb N} \Gamma_n)\cong L(\Lambda)$ then there
exists an infinite direct sum decomposition $\Lambda=(\oplus_{n \in \mathbb N}
\Lambda_n )\oplus A$ with $A$ icc amenable such that, for all $n\in \mathbb N$,
up to amplifications, we have $L(\Gamma_n) \cong L(\Lambda_n)$ and
$L(\oplus_{k\geq n} \Gamma_k )\cong L((\oplus_{k\geq n} \Lambda_k) \oplus A)$.
The result is sharp and complements the previous finite product rigidity
property found in [CdSS16]. Using this we provide an uncountable family of
restricted wreath products $\Gamma\cong\Sigma\wr \Delta$ of icc, property (T)
groups $\Sigma$, $\Delta$ whose wreath product structure is recognizable, up to
a normal amenable subgroup, from their von Neumann algebras $L(\Gamma)$. Along
the way we highlight several applications of these results to the study of
rigidity in the $\mathbb C^*$-algebra setting.
