Abstract
There is provided a slide fastener. Each of a pair of fastener element rows is a coil-shaped fastener element row made of synthetic resin. Each of fastener elements includes an engaging head section, a first leg section and a second leg section. The first and second leg sections protrude from the engaging head section and extend parallel to each other. The first leg section comes in contact with the corresponding fastener tape and the second leg section does not come in contact with the corresponding fastener tape. The first leg section is colored in a color different from those of the fastener tapes and the second leg section. The color of the first leg section is visible through a gap between the pair of fastener tapes.

A slide fastener comprising:
- a pair of fastener tapes;
- a pair of fastener element rows respectively sewn to opposing tape side edge portions of the pair of fastener tapes by sewing threads, each of the fastener element rows having a plurality of fastener elements;
- and
- a slider configured to engage and disengage the pair of fastener element rows,
- wherein each of the fastener element rows is a coil-shaped fastener element row made of synthetic resin,
- wherein each of the fastener elements comprises an engaging head section and a first leg section and a second leg section protruding from the engaging head section and extending parallel to each other,
- wherein the first leg section comes in contact with the corresponding fastener tape and the second leg section does not come in contact with the corresponding fastener tape,
- wherein a coating film on a surface of the first leg section colors the first leg section such that the first leg section is colored in a color different from those of the fastener tapes and the second leg section,
- wherein the color of the first leg section is visible through a gap between the pair of fastener tapes, and
- wherein the coating film on the surface of the first leg section comes in contact with the corresponding fastener tape and extends beyond the gap between the pair of fastener tapes.
