The disclosure discloses a fastener tape, a slide fastener and a fastener tape manufacturing device. The fastener tape includes a fastener tape body and a fastener element fixed to a first side of the fastener tape body. A second side of the fastener tape body is folded toward a back side of the fastener tape body, and a bent part extending along a length direction of the fastener tape is formed after the folding. The bent part divides the fastener tape body into a first fastener tape part and a second fastener tape part respectively located on a front surface and a back surface of the fastener tape body. Moreover, a fixing holding part is further disposed between the first fastener tape part and the second fastener tape part for maintaining the folded state of the fastener tape body.

Provided is a fastener stringer attachment structure which can provide an attractive pants silhouette, improve the fit of the pants, and furthermore, reduce the manufacturing cost of the pants by reducing the number of superposed fabrics at a side edge section of a lower front bodice. A fastener tape of a fastener stringer is sewn with a sewing thread to the upper surface of a lower side fabric so that a fastener element of the fastener stringer is positioned inside an end section of the lower side fabric, and a portion of the sewing thread positioned over the fastener tape is in contact with the upper surface of the fastener tape.

The invention provides a monitor device for monitoring the state of a zip closure system comprising an electrically conductive slider (4), a first tape (1), and a second tape (2), each provided with a series of members (3), such as teeth or spiral turns, that can be coupled and uncoupled with the series of corresponding members (3) by moving said slider. Two strips (5, 6) of electrically conductive material, referred to as conductive strips, that are secured to the first tape (1) and that are arranged transversely, preferably perpendicularly, relative to the longitudinal axis of the first tape (1). Said strips (5, 6) and the slider (4) are configured in such a manner that the two strips (5, 6) are electrically connected together by the slider (4) when said slider (4) is moved level with said strips (5, 6). Said device further comprises a detector system (8) configured to detect the state of electrical continuity between the two strips (5, 6).

Aspects herein are directed to a flexible and breathable slider assembly for an article of apparel. The slider assembly includes a first slider tape having a first longitudinal edge with a first series of alternating peaks and troughs and a second longitudinal edge. The slider assembly also includes a third longitudinal edge with a second series of alternating peaks and troughs and a fourth longitudinal edge. A first textile edge of the article is attached to respective peaks of the first series of peaks but is unattached from respective troughs of the first series of troughs to form a first series of spaces. A second textile edge of the article is attached to respective peaks of the second series of peaks but is unattached from respective troughs of the second series of troughs to form a second series of spaces.

In the sector of the production of customized zipper tapes for application on items of apparel and accessories, disclosed is a process for the production of a woven tape with weft effect using a jacquard loom which permits control of each thread of the weft, warp and cord so that the design is not subject to limitations of repetition and length.

A method for manufacturing a fastener stringer according to the present invention, include a dyeing step for dyeing a fastener stringer including an element row fixed to a side edge portion of a tape made of fiber, a dye cleaning step for removing excess dye from the fastener stringer, a water repellent treatment step for adhering a non-fluorine-based water repellent agent to the fastener stringer, and a pre-dyeing degreasing step for degreasing oil and fat adhered to the fastener stringer by a wet process.
