Fastenermounted tape for clothing

A male-mounted tape is composed of a plurality of synthetic resin male snaps moulded and fastened onto a cloth tape at certain intervals in such a way that their engagement sides and non-engagement sides, which are asymmetric to each other, are on the front side and the back side of the cloth tape respectively. A female tape is composed of a plurality of synthetic resin female snaps moulded and fastened onto a cloth tape at the same intervals as the male snaps in such a way that their engagement sides and non-engagement sides, which are asymmetric to each other, are on the front side and the back side of the cloth tape respectively. The cloth tapes, on which the female and male snaps are formed and fastened, are not provided with holes for mounting the snaps. The engagement sides and the non-engagement sides of the male snaps coexist on both the front side and the back side of the male tape, and the engagement sides and the non-engagement sides of the female snaps coexist on both the front side and the back side of the female tape.
