SCOTTSDALE, Arizona — For those who love the simple yet stunning look of black, legendary Miura irons just got even more irresistible.
Long known for quality and craftsmanship in both look and feel, Japanese clubmaker Miura Golf introduced a new matte black finish to its lineup of irons and wedges. Miura now offers the MB-101, TC-201, CB-301, MC-501 as well as the forged K-Grind 2.0, Milled Wedge and Tour Wedge HB in a striking, yet durable, black finish that retains every element of Miura beauty and design.
The new matte black finish offers a visually stunning alternative to the renowned Miura satin chrome finish.
Using the specialized Quench, Polish, Quench (QPQ) manufacturing process, Miura is able to produce a black finish that retains its elegant matte look over time. The QPQ process creates an extremely thin layer of iron oxide on the exterior. This three-step process leaves the club with a heightened durability and groove life. The black finish also contributes to a glare-free address.
“We’re excited to introduce this striking new option for all of our fully forged irons,” CEO of Miura Golf Hoyt McGarity said. “We’ve gone through extensive testing to ensure we’re using a durable treatment that doesn’t wear off over time. Miura has never sacrificed substance for style, and by using the QPQ process, we’re able to offer this eye-catching look that will never lose its luster.”
Miura has long been known for producing exceptional clubs that visually and viscerally delight golf purists. Created from a commitment to precision and perfection by Katsuhiro Miura several decades ago, the proprietary three-strike forging process enables Miura clubs to be a league above any other on the market: forged for accuracy, bounce, speed, and impact. Every forged Miura club treated with the matte black finish retains the legendary feel of Miura craftsmanship.
