The chamois cover having a pocket section for receiving the mop body, and a flap for securing the mop body within the pocket section. The chamois cover being constructed from one or more pieces of water repellant chamois and including a plurality of elongated chamois strands extending outward from the cover. One or more connectors are positioned along the pocket and flap sections to secure the cover in an open or closed position. A hinge mechanism and a pole receptacle are positioned along the top surface of the main body. The hinge mechanism functioning to allow the mop body to move omnidirectionally relative to a pole secured onto the pole receptacle.
