Mizuno JPX One Driver: The World’s First NanoAlloy Face

June 28, 2026 · 4 min read

Mizuno is best known for buttery irons, but the JPX One driver is the reason its 2026 lineup is getting attention. It launches in two models and introduces a face material the company says is a first in golf.

Two Models, Two Shapes

The JPX One carries a slightly larger footprint for higher stability and a straighter ball flight, while the JPX One Select is a more compact, tour-preferred shape for players who want to work the ball. Same technology, two personalities.

The World’s First NanoAlloy Face

The headline is the NanoAlloy face, developed with materials specialist Toray. It uses microscopic polymer dispersion to create a face that dynamically changes its elasticity under load — storing and releasing more energy at impact than a traditional titanium or composite face. It is the kind of materials-science swing that Mizuno tends to make quietly and well.

A Thinner CorTech Face

Supporting that is a newly engineered CorTech Face that is up to 0.35mm thinner than before, expanding the high-speed rebound zone (the CorArea) by more than 15 percent. Bigger rebound area means more of your strikes get the fast treatment, not just the ones flushed dead center.

Who It’s For

The JPX One is a strong option for players who value feel and a clean look and want current face technology — the standard head for stability, the Select for a more compact, shot-shaping profile. Mizuno loyalists finally have a driver worth pairing with those irons.
