The Vokey SM10 in Jet Black is Bob Vokey's 2024 wedge dressed in a darkened, non-glare finish that cuts down reflection at address. Titleist offers it here across the scoring range, from a 50-degree gap wedge up to a pair of 60s, so you can build a matched set that fills the yardages between your shortest iron and full send. This is a player's wedge, and it plays like one.
Jet Black is not just a paint job. The PVD coating knocks down glare when the sun is behind you on a low approach, and it wears in over time the way Vokey finishes do, softening at the leading edge and around the sole where you make contact. Some golfers hate that. Plenty love it, because the wear pattern tells you exactly where you're striking the face.
With progressive lofts through the set and Vokey's Spin Milled groove work, the SM10 rewards a repeatable swing and clean contact. If you flight your wedges, open the face on greenside shots, and want feedback you can feel, this is squarely aimed at you. It asks for precision and gives it back.
In short
The Titleist Vokey SM10 Jet Black (2024) is a tour-grind wedge built for shotmaking and versatility around the green. Lofts run 50° to 60° across 4 grinds.

Loft and bounce are nominal values. Actual specifications may vary.
The SM10 carries progressive center-of-gravity placement, so the heads get slightly heavier and the CG moves higher as loft increases. That keeps the higher-lofted 58s and 60s flighting down instead of ballooning, which matters on a knockdown or a low spinner into the wind. The lower lofts, the 50 and 52, sit a touch more toward full-swing territory where you want a bit more launch and carry consistency. Grooves are cut and finished to Vokey's spin-milled spec, with tighter, more aggressive edges on the higher lofts where you need every rpm you can get out of the rough or a wet lie. The Jet Black finish darkens the whole head for a cleaner look down at the ball, and because it's a wearing finish, the sole and leading edge will start to show raw steel after a season of real use.
Yes, and that's by design. The Jet Black PVD is a wearing finish, so after regular play the sole and leading edge will start showing raw steel where you make contact. It reduces glare while it lasts and gives you a visual read on your strike pattern as it goes. If you want a finish that stays uniform, the brushed steel or Tour Chrome options hold their look longer.
This setup runs from 50 up through 60 degrees, with doubled options at 54, 56, 58, and 60. That lets you pick the exact loft and often the grind that fits your swing and turf conditions. A common three-wedge build off a pitching wedge would be something like 50, 54, and 58, but the doubled lofts give you room to fine-tune your gapping.
Progressive means the design changes as loft goes up. The higher-lofted heads carry a slightly higher center of gravity and different sole and groove specs than the lower ones. In practice, your 58 and 60 flight lower and spin harder on short shots, while your 50 and 52 launch a bit more for full swings. It's tuned so each wedge does its job instead of a one-spec-fits-all approach.
It can work, but it's built for players who make clean, repeatable contact. The SM10 is a feedback-heavy wedge that rewards precision and shot-shaping around the green, not a game-improvement club with built-in forgiveness. If your wedge contact is inconsistent, you'll notice the misses. If you strike it well and want control, it delivers.
Jet Black is the darkest finish in the lineup, a non-glare PVD that reduces reflection at address and gives a clean, blacked-out look over the ball. The tradeoff is that it wears in with use, unlike Tour Chrome or brushed steel which hold their appearance longer. Performance is the same across finishes; the choice comes down to glare, looks, and whether you like a finish that ages.
