Some call it pool table felt, others just call it cloth. Quite simply, it is the fabric covering over a pool table's entire play surface extending up onto rails. Billiard cloth is very important as it not only affects the look and the feel of the vast majority of the top of the table, but it also has everything to do with the performance of ball roll during game play.

Selecting billiard cloth for your pool table really entails two decisions. First, you'll pick which cloth type is best for your intended use. Then you get to pick your favorite color offered for that type.

We offer 5 unique types of billiard cloth: Standard, American Pro, Euro Pro, All Weather, and Customized. Those options are listed below, but for most setups, our Standard Billiard Cloth is the best fit for home use and casual players. There is information on each type below to help you determine which would be the best fit, but if you're feeling overwhelmed by the options, Standard Billiard Cloth is always a safe bet!

Once you have selected your cloth type, it's time to pick a color. Whether you're working with colors already in your space or simply trying to match an inspo pic, remember that picking a color is not permanent. Depending on usage and wear, you will have your cloth replaced many times over the lifespan of the pool table. That means each time you decide to recover your table with new cloth, you can choose a new color or even a new type!

If you're having a hard time making a decision, nothing beats seeing your cloth in person. A visit to one of our North Texas showrooms will get you hands on, comparing cloth samples side by side. One of our game room consultants will work with you to find the best fit. We'll lay your top selections over the rails of a pool table to see how the fabric works with the texture and finish color of a particular model.
