Yes there is. Cloth filters are a thing. Coffee sock is one brand I know of that make filters for V60s and others. Obviously you need to clean it and occasionally boil it remove oil buildup.

These are what most of the old-school kissaten (the ones with the vacuum siphons) use in Japan.
What a great idea! Thanks!

Do you know what kind of cloth is commonly used? I imagine it's something like linen, cotton, or hemp?

I've only used the Coffee sock ones I mentioned and those are cotton.
Least alluring name for a thing ever, but love the concept. Will definitely check it out :)
