Pool Table Cloth, Billiard Table FeltPool table cloth, or pool table felt, has been around for centuries. The basics of having a cloth surface on a pool table started because the table looked more appealing, the balls rolled true, the wear and tear on the table itself was reduced and the sounds were muffled. Many refer to pool table cloth as pool table felt because most of the early pool table cloth was very “nappy” or fuzzy. This is the difference in the two styles of pool table cloth that exist. The two styles are directional (close up pictured to right) and non-directional. Directional cloth is very fuzzy where non-directional pool table cloth is not. Directional pool table felt gets its name because of the way it plays and the way it’s cleaned. With directional pool table felt, the fuzz or “nap” is designed to lay in one direction. It will actually cause balls to roll slightly off and even make the table appear not to be level because the nap can raise the playing surface up a few thousandths of an inch, which will redirect a slow rolling ball ever so slightly.
