How do you clean your glasses? (sh.itjust.works)

Lens manufacturers say that anything other than a microfiber cloth will damage the coatings on a lens. But microfiber cloths eventually pick up crap and they look like they're a pain to wash.

How do you keep your lenses clean? Are you using cloth/kleenex or microfiber cloths? If you use microfiber cloths, how do you clean those?

I tend to wear cotton t shirts so I tend to just grab a corner of that to clean em.

Been doing this for 20 yrs and never had to replace a set before my eyes said otherwise.

Frames on the other hand...
