The separable bottom end stop for a reverse opening-type slide fastener according to the present invention, in which left and right element rows (12) of left and right fastener stringers (10) can be opened from an upper end and a lower end, the slide fastener (100) comprising: a lower slider (30) for opening the left and right element rows (12) from the lower end, the lower slider (30) including a locking claw (40), which is elastically biased to a protruded position protruding into an element guide path (34) of the lower slider (30); an insert pin (50) connected to a lower end of one of the left and right element rows (12); and a box pin (60) connected to a lower end of the other of the left and right element rows (12). At least one of the box pin (60) and the insert pin (50) includes a release groove (63) capable of receiving the locking claw (40) on a side surface (62) opposing to the other side surface. At least one of the box pin (60) and the insert pin (50) includes a protruded piece (66) protruding from one side surface (62) toward the other side face (51), the side surfaces (62, 51) being opposing to each other. The release groove (63) extends upward at least to a lower end of the protruded piece (66).
A separable bottom end stop for a reverse opening-type slide fastener (100), in which left and right element rows (12) of left and right fastener stringers (10) can be opened from an upper end and a lower end, the slide fastener (100) comprising:
