does the hood roll into the collar or does it detach completely?

It detaches completely from the jacket. It's connected by a durable zipper.

No it does not it's smaller and leaves gap. Makes it difficult to open hood

It does pull down tight but there is a rubber piece between the hood and fender. It is adjustable but only about 1/8th inch. Mine is on a 10th anniversary hood.

The rounded "hood" is attached to the heat sink around the light strip and what holds the unit to the arm. It does appear that it may slide out and I tried to move it some, but I did not want to break it. It definitely doesn't slide out easily after a year or more of use. It might be glued in from the manufacturer, as it comes almost completely assembled.

No it does not move. It is secured in place. Which honestly is a huge disappointment for me. It provides little protection from the sun. I had another triumph that is around 7 years old and that hood was great. Not sure why they changed it. I wouldn't of bought this had I known. Waste of $200!

No, it does not come with the hood. You are to use the hood from your stroller seat. There is more information in the description.

The hood it's not removable and on the second question: depends how cold it is. It's very comfortable and good on windy weather and 0+ degrees. On minus degrees you need some fleece or something like that.

The collar is designed for easy removal-just twist the knurled knob to loosen and then pull up on the knob and the collar can then be detached. I see from your comment to a previous response that your issue is with the knob itself when the knob is in the vertical position. I don't believe you can remove the knob and still have the collar attached so for your situation it appears you will need to remove the collar when shooting vertically.

No. I left it a little loose on my dog, he wears it indoors and its nice & loose when I walk him I dont adjust it. It will tighten on its own if he pulls.

Yes it does have a hood and it can be hidden in the collar. It's a great jacket. I highly recommended it.

It retracts back into the base , it's a good one for sure , the knob on the side lets you tighten it up if the roll up isn't as tight as you want , I have two and I'm very happy

I don't believe it does Becky. The hood does fold back however, I don't believe that it is removable. I purchased this for my 20 month granddaughter who puts her dolls and stuffed animals in and pushed them around the house. She opens and closes the hood. I'll check with my daughter-in-law when they return from their trip.

No. What you see in the picture is it. It does turn and pull out, but no other attachment. Works great, though.

Hello David,That's a great and valid question. We state in our product description, "The veiled hood is self-supporting and collapsible." Thank you for your question.Sincerely,Taylor W.VIVO

It DOES detach...hooks in with a little rod that pops into a hole and holds it on.

I've taken ours off a few times and put it back on. Velcro seems to still hold good. Just make sure the new collar width is compatible.

My hood came unattached and I can't figure out how to attach. I am going to have to return it. Not very happy about this situation.
