1. A garment body of a fan-equipped garment, comprising:
a fan mount hole for mounting a fan;
a front fabric made of a material having no breathability or having a certain level of breathability to be inflated with air introduced by the fan;
a heat insulation layer disposed on a back side of the front fabric and made of a material that is configured to hold air; and
a back fabric disposed on a back side of the heat insulation layer,
wherein:
the front fabric, the heat insulation layer, and the back fabric are combined with stitches,
the material from which the front fabric is made has a higher sunlight reflectivity than the back fabric, and
when the garment body is worn by a wearer and air is introduced into the garment body by the fan, the air introduced inside the garment body flows between the back fabric and a body of the wearer such that sweat drained from the body of the wearer evaporates and the body is cooled by evaporation heat generated in evaporation of the sweat.
