Product Insights
The Minimalist Checkerboard Dishcloths Set Of 2 from Simons Maison offers immediate moisture wicking from first use without scratching delicate dishware, but the pattern fades to a softened vintage look with cold water washes and requires careful laundering—separately in a mesh bag, cold water, no fabric softener, low dry—to prevent color bleeding, reduce lint after 3–5 washes, and triple usable life despite shorter fibers that inherently hold less water than microfiber.
Verified claims
- Absorbency
- Reprocessed cotton dishcloths wick moisture immediately from first use and are effective for everyday wiping despite holding less water than microfiber.
- Color aging
- The checkerboard pattern fades into a softened vintage look when washed in cold water.
- Bleeding prevention
- Washing separately in cold water prevents color bleeding in the first few washes.
- Durability
- Washing in a mesh bag can triple usable life due to shorter fibers.
- Care
- Wash in cold water, avoid fabric softener, and dry low to prevent shrinkage and color bleeding.
- Lifespan extension
- Using a mesh bag and delicate cycle can triple the cloths' usable life.

Facile d’entretien
C’est le 2e kit que j’achète. La couleur noire est parfaite car les taches ne paraissent pas. Par ailleurs, les linges de vaisselle de la même collection sont moins absorbants (essuient donc moins bien que anticipé).

dishcloths, not tea towels
this was my error but these cloths came smaller than expected - to me the image looked like full tea towels but they are definitely dishcloths. but, they are very absorbant and the colour is lovely.

Minimalist checkerboard dishcloths.
I bought these because of the Sale price. I expected some shrinkage, which did happen, but they are also NOT absorbent. I will not be buying dishcloths from Simons again.

Very practical
Not too heavy so easy to squeeze to remove excess water after cleaning a dish or countertop. Green colour is good as it doesn’t show small stains. Useful purchase.
Glad these are back!

Dishcloths ate a necessity in the kitchen, of course, but why not make them beautiful. These look beautiful on the sink, yet also offer incredible practicality.

Black/White Dishcloths
These take many washes before the black dye stops bleeding out in the laundry. It will stain light colours if one mistakenly gets in the wash with light colours - which happened to me. Otherwise - good dishcloths.
