Thanks to the waterproofness of the cover materials 5m and 5n, the waterproofness of the zipper stringers 2m and 2n is ensured regardless of the water permeability of the water permeable stringers 7m and 7n (that is, the zipper stringers 2m and 2n function as waterproof stringers). However, the slide fastener 1 functions as a waterproof fastener).
- the soft material 99 can include one or more additives to enhance or improve its physical or chemical properties.
- the soft material 99 can also contain pigments (inorganic pigments, organic pigments) in addition to the above-mentioned main materials, so that the cover material is colored in a desired color according to the pigment.
- the waterproof performance (waterproof level) of the slide fastener 1 depends on various internal parameters such as the material, thickness, and density of the components of the fastener stringers 2m and 2n, and also depends on external parameters such as the water pressure applied to the slide fastener 1. It also depends on the target parameters.
- the slide fastener 1 can be designed to have a waterproof performance between an inexpensive slide fastener that has water repellency as described at the beginning and an expensive slide fastener that can ensure high watertightness or airtightness.
- the waterproof level may be lower or higher than this.
- the cover materials 5m and 5n are configured as support base materials that support the fastener tapes 3m and 3n (see FIGS. 4 and 5).

Furthermore, the core sheet 60 is embedded in the soft material 99 in such a manner that one side thereof is at least partially exposed or both sides thereof are not exposed. According to this configuration, the soft material 99 is supported by the core sheet 60, and the shape of the cover materials 5m and 5n including the seal portion 56 is stabilized. As a non-limiting effect, it is possible to use inexpensive fastener tapes 3m and 3n that can be mass-produced, and it is possible to promote cost reduction of the slide fastener 1.
- the core sheet 60 extends in the longitudinal direction of the slide fastener 1 (also the fastener stringers 2m, 2n) in order to support the fastener tapes 3m, 3n.
- a layered soft material 99 is attached to and supported on one or both sides of the core sheet 60 (see FIG. 4). When one side of the core sheet 60 is exposed, the other side of the core sheet 60 opposite to this exposed side is not exposed.
- the core sheet 60 is exposed on the opposite side from the soft material 99.
- the core sheet 60 is covered with the soft material 99 on both sides and is not exposed. Note that whether or not the surface of the core material sheet 60 is exposed is based on whether or not the cover materials 5m and 5n can be visually recognized from the outside.

- the outer end surface 59 of the cover material 5n is located further outward of the fastener tape 3n than the outer end surface 39 of the fastener tape 3n. This makes it easier to weld the slide fastener 1 to the fabric of the other party.
- the tape outward means a direction extending from a position on the main surface of a certain fastener tape to a position outside the main surface, intersecting the side edges extending in the longitudinal direction of the fastener tape.
- the inner end may be referred to as one end and the outer end may be referred to as the other end.
- the inner end surface can also be called one end surface, and the outer end surface can also be called the other end surface.
