Felt. Technically pool table felt is baize, not felt. Felt is a cloth that is not woven, and pool table felt is woven baize constructed specifically for pool table use. The two most popular brands are Simonis and Granito, and there are a handful more. Each cloth made has properties that will affect the way the balls react and how long the felt will last.

∙ 13y agoTypically a good pool table is covered with a worsted cloth made from wool. Simonis Cloth is considered the best and it starts with very fine combed wool yarn. This long-fiber wool is then tightly-twisted and woven (the worsted wool process) into cloth. Then it is specially sheared perfectly flat and finally finished in a tradition of craftsmanship that our mill in Verviers, Belgium, pioneered and has refined for over three centuries. The result is a beautiful precision cloth that achieves the smoothest, most accurate and most consistent play surface available.
