VALENCIA, Calif. – Mechanix Wear has joined NASCAR Unites – An American Salute, a patriotic initiative bringing the power and passion of the entire sport together to honor the United States military and their families. The industry-wide initiative is an opportunity for NASCAR fans, drivers, teams, tracks and sponsors to unite and improve the lives of military families in need across the nation. 
Mechanix Wear is saluting our nations’ heroes with the development of the limited edition Original Patriot Glove. NASCAR teams and officials will show their red, white and blue spirit on pit road with the limited edition Patriot Glove throughout summer NASCAR race events culminating at Daytona International Speedway (Independence Day Weekend, July 5-7).
The limited edition Original Patriot Glove also is available to fans for purchase exclusively at www.mechanix.com with a portion of each glove sale going to NASCAR Unites – An American Salute. 
“The entire NASCAR community has a long history of recognizing the efforts of the men and women who serve in our country’s military,” said NASCAR President Mike Helton. “With this effort, we continue to rally the NASCAR industry to collectively express our gratitude to those who serve our country and their families. This program will reinforce our sport’s commitment to the United States Military while also raising funds to help support military families.”
