Abstract

A fastener (F) comprising two tapes (1, 2) , made of a flexible fabric. Around a respective longitudinal edge (la, 2a) of each of said tapes (1, 2) a respective plurality of separate coupling members (3; 3a, 3b) adapted to be engaged with and disengaged from those of the other tape (2, 1) is fixed. The tapes (1, 2) are made of a knitted fabric including a plurality of longitudinal chain threads (C1, C2, ...) interlaced by tricot or weft threads (A1, B1; A2, B2; ...) extending along respective sinuous paths so as to form a corresponding plurality of longitudinal stitch wales (W12, W23, W34, ...). An essentially inextensible anchoring cord (AC) extends and is firmly retained through the first stitch wale (W12) of each tape (1, 2) adjacent the said edge (la, 2a). The coupling members (3; 3a, 3b) of each tape (1, 2) grips the said anchoring cord (AC).
