Solution

Wool is a type of fabric that has several layers. Air can be trapped between the layers for a long time. Also, wool is a bad conductor of heat so it does not allow the body heat to escape into the surroundings.
This makes wool a suitable and preferred material for clothing in colder seasons like winter.
