Pool and billiard cloth is commonly, though incorrectly, referred to as felt. Felt is not a woven material. Pool cloth is woven. Higher-end cloths are worsted wool weaves.

We purchase cloth directly from Championship, Gorina, and Simonis cutting out the middle-man and allowing us to pass the savings on to our customers. Our pricing is very competitive, even compared to internet and mail-order stores.

Championship

As a regional distributor of Championship products, we are able to offer very competitve pricing. Titan is our most popular cloth and is relatively inexpensive. We stock many colors in bolts or 8 foot precut packages. Championship Mercury is another popular, and inexpensive cloth. Though not worsted, Mercury goes through a finishing process to make it play like a worsted cloth. It is not as heavy as worsted cloths and will not last as long, but plays much faster than Titan.
