Part of wimple — a thermal material (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pleather

'material' is the definition.
(type of imitation leather)

'part of wimple a thermal' is the wordplay.
'part of' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'PLEATHER' is hidden within 'wimple a thermal'.

(Another definition for pleather that I've seen is " Fabric".)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
