1. A garment body of a fan-equipped garment which is formed in a shape that is configured to cover at least a trunk of a wearer and which is made of garment cloth that is not breathable or has sufficient breathability to be inflated by a ventilator that introduces air, the garment body comprising:
a mount hole for mounting the ventilator; and
a rope penetration unit through which a rope penetrates from an inside to an outside of the garment body of the fan-equipped garment,
wherein:
the rope penetration unit comprises an opening section adjustment mechanism that adjusts an opening area of an opening section,
the opening section adjustment mechanism comprises:
a contraction unit that contracts a rim of the opening section, the contraction unit including:
a cord loop which extends along the rim of the opening section and which has a gap that communicates with an outside at an outlet; and
a cord provided around an entirety of the rim of the opening section and through the cord loop such that a part of the cord is exposed from the outlet; and
a contraction control mechanism that suppresses contraction of the cord rim of the opening section by the contraction unit,
the contraction control mechanism comprises at least two joining parts at each of which the cord loop and the cord are joined, and
the joining parts are provided at positions between respective ends of the cord and suppress contraction of a portion of the cord loop between the joining parts where the outlet is not formed such that even when the opening area of the opening section is adjusted to its minimum area by the cord loop being brought to its most contracted position, the portion of the cord loop between the joining parts is not contracted.
