Is that usable for dusting then, or is that for something else? I feel like for dusting, you want a somewhat rougher structure, so it can hold the dust better...

They've all come with glasses or other glass lensed items, and I use them more for removing smudges than dust. But that's why it has two sides. It doesn't need to be rough, it just needs a lot of surface area. The suede-like side provides that, but even my dry-ass hands don't get that funky Velcro feeling rubbing against it.

As far as I'm aware, the microfiber cloths specifically made for dusting have a structure like this:

Microfiber cloths looking almost like they're knitted.

So, it isn't (intentionally) rough either. You wouldn't really scrub with these. But yeah, certainly not ever going to be silky smooth either...

I have some like that I use as dish towels. And yeah, those definitely feel like velcro. I guees I've just never heard these ones called microfiber before.
