Now Designs Floursack Towel
A plain 100% cotton flour-sack towel - lint-free when damp, so it polishes glass and mirrors streak-free without a microfiber cloth. Cheap, natural, endlessly washable.
The verdict: Plastic-free
Just 100% cotton in a tight, thin flour-sack weave. The reason it earns a spot is glass: microfiber's big selling point is streak-free glass, and a damp flour-sack towel does the same job with no plastic - the fine, lint-free cotton weave leaves no fibers behind on a mirror or window. It doubles as an all-purpose drying and dusting cloth and washes forever.

Pros
- 100% cotton and lint-free - streak-free glass without microfiber
- Large, versatile, and inexpensive
- Washes and reuses indefinitely
Cons
- Thin - less absorbent than a terry or Swedish cloth for big spills
- Best for glass/drying/dusting; pair with a thicker cloth for soaking up messes
Notes
- Confirm "100% cotton" on any flour-sack or bar mop - cheap ones sometimes sneak in a poly blend
- A 100% linen glass cloth is the traditional alternative and works the same way
