Heavy wool sweaters covered by heavy wool overcoats, with maybe another layer or two of something else, have been shown to effectively stop rounds up to the .380 ACP and such. Even 9mm with lightweight hollow points will sometimes fail to penetrate. Oh, they will leave one hell of a mark, but that's not what we are after.
147gn 9mm flat nose FTW.
