How do I know what type of felt is best for me?

Like any other product there are many brands of felt available for your pool table. In our opinion if you're looking for the best quality there are only two brands to look at. Championship Tour Edition and Simonis.

We chose Championship because they have the largest selection of colors and several different grades of felt to choose from. We recommend Titan for those who are looking to go the economic route. Of all the 21oz felt makers out there we have found the Championship Titan felt to be the most durable.

For the serious pool player We recommend the Championship Tour Edition felt for your table. The tour edition is more durable than the Titan, the ball rolls truer and plays faster than with 21oz felt. The drawback is the cost, the Tour Edition is usually 3 to 4 times more expensive than the Titan felt.

Second on our list is the Simonis. Simonis is considered by many to be the best in the business as far as pool table felt goes for the same reasons as the Tour Edition by Championship. While we agree that the Simonis is a much better felt than the Titan I find the the Tour Edition to be on par with the Simonis. Both brands are available for our pool tables.
