What is a breathable fabric that will stop simple punctures/ impact?

Filed under: punctures 

What is thin a fabric that would be able to stop something on the scale of a nail hammered or glass pushed through it? Or how would it be made? What materials/ processes? It would also have to be breathable for integration into clothes.
