Wool is known for its insulating properties and thickness, making it less transparent than gauze or denim. Gauze is a thin, sheer fabric made of loosely woven fibers, offering a higher level of transparency compared to wool. Denim is a tightly woven cotton fabric known for its durability and opacity, making it less transparent than both wool and gauze.

Wool is not see-through like gauze or denim. Gauze fabric is the most transparent, followed by denim which is opaque.
The transparency of fabric depends on the material and weave. Some fabrics, like chiffon, organza, or lace, are more transparent, while others, like denim or wool, are opaque. Consulting the fabric's description or holding it up to light can help determine its transparency.
Wool is opaque, meaning it does not allow light to pass through it easily. Wool fibers are tightly packed and do not have as much transparency as materials such as glass or plastic.
Denim is not a particularly good insulator as it is a breathable fabric that allows air to flow through. For better insulation, materials like wool, down, or synthetic fibers are more effective at trapping heat.
Wool and denim are considered to be some of the thickest fabrics due to their dense and heavy nature. They provide excellent insulation and are often used in making winter clothing and heavy-duty workwear.
A jacket can be made of a variety of fabrics, including denim, leather, wool, polyester, or cotton. The choice of fabric will depend on the style and functionality of the jacket.
