JACKET WITH DETACHABLE HOOD

1 . A jacket comprising:

a body portion;

a jacket collar connected to the body portion, the jacket collar comprising:

a first magnetic connector; and

a connection sleeve opening defined by a first sleeve side and a second sleeve side opposing the first sleeve side;

a hood removably attached to the jacket collar inside the connection sleeve opening, the hood comprising:

a top dome portion;

a back portion connected to the top dome portion;

a side portion connected to the top dome portion and the back portion; and

a hood collar extending from the side portion, the hood collar comprising a second magnetic connector coupled to the first magnetic connector.

2 . The jacket of claim 1 , wherein:

the first magnetic connector is embedded in the first sleeve side; and

the jacket collar further comprises a third magnetic connector embedded in the second sleeve side, the third magnetic connector being positionally offset relative to the first magnetic connector and the second magnetic connector.

3 . The jacket of claim 2 , wherein the hood collar comprises a first layer and a second layer.

4 . The jacket of claim 3 , wherein:

the second magnetic connector abuts the first layer of the hood collar;

the hood collar further comprises a fourth magnetic connector abutting the second layer of the hood collar, the fourth magnetic connector being positioned to align with the third magnetic connector of the jacket collar; and

the fourth magnetic connector is coupled to the third magnetic connector.

5 . The jacket of claim 1 , wherein the first sleeve side conceals a coupling of the first magnetic connector and the second magnetic connector.

6 . A jacket comprising:

a jacket body comprising:

a jacket collar; and

a first magnetic connector positioned at the jacket collar; and

a detachable hood comprising:

a front hood flap comprising a second magnetic connector;

wherein the front hood flap is removably attachable to the jacket collar by coupling the second magnetic connector to the first magnetic connector.

7 . The jacket of claim 6 , wherein the jacket collar defines a connection sleeve.

8 . The jacket of claim 7 , wherein the first magnetic connector is accessible inside the connection sleeve.

9 . The jacket of claim 7 , wherein the front hood flap is sized and shaped to be inserted into the connection sleeve.

10 . The jacket of claim 9 , wherein upon insertion of the front hood flap into the connection sleeve, the front hood flap is at least partially concealed.

11 . The jacket of claim 7 , further comprising a zipper, wherein an opening of the connection sleeve is oriented away from the zipper.

12 . The jacket of claim 6 , wherein an end portion of the front hood flap is concealed when the first magnetic connector and the second magnetic connector are coupled together.

13 . A method of attaching a hood to a jacket, the method comprising:

opening a connection sleeve disposed on a jacket collar of a jacket, the connection sleeve comprising a first magnet;

providing a detachable hood that includes a hood flap comprising a second magnet;

inserting the hood flap into the connection sleeve; and

coupling the first magnet and the second magnet.

14 . The method of claim 13 , wherein:

the first magnet is positioned adjacent to a mouth of the connection sleeve; and

the second magnet is positioned inward of an end portion of the hood flap.

15 . The method of claim 14 , wherein coupling the first magnet and the second magnet causes the hood flap to positionally align within the connection sleeve.

16 . The method of claim 14 , further comprising:

providing a third magnet disposed in the connection sleeve and positioned away from the mouth of the connection sleeve;

providing a fourth magnet disposed on the hood flap at or near the end portion of the hood flap; and

coupling the third magnet and the fourth magnet.

17 . The method of claim 16 , wherein coupling the third magnet and the fourth magnet occurs when a user pushes the end portion of the hood flap deeper into the connection sleeve.

18 . The method of claim 13 , further comprising decoupling the first magnet and the second magnet using a single-handed pulling motion.

19 . The method of claim 13 , further comprising decoupling the first magnet and the second magnet by inducing a fulcrum effect by:

manually grasping the hood; and

without further hand movement, shifting a head of a user to tension the hood flap relative to the coupling of the first magnet and the second magnet until the second magnet decouples from the first magnet.

20 . The method of claim 13 , wherein opening the connection sleeve comprises peeling back a portion of the connection sleeve to expand or expose a mouth of the connection sleeve.
