Abstract
In a woven fastener stringer, a weft thread is folded back while interlacing with a upper direction converting portion configured by an upper fixing warp thread and a lower direction converting portion configured by a lower fixing warp thread on a side close to engaging head portions of fastener elements. An upper extension portion configured by the upper fixing warp thread is placed in adjacent to a tape main body side of the upper direction converting portion. A lower extension portion configured by the lower fixing warp thread is placed in adjacent to the tape main body side of the lower direction converting portion. According to this, when a slide fastener is used in an inside out manner, it is possible to make it difficult to see the coupled fastener elements.
