HOFFMAN ESTATES, Ill., Dec. 9, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Before you dash out looking for presents, be sure to check out gift giving ideas from Made Man, a men's lifestyle website, and the Craftsman® brand available at Sears.com and ShopYourWay.com.

"I'm a firm believer that you are never too old to unwrap toys Christmas morning. While a drone or sports car may be out of the budget this year, a new power tool is the ultimate man's toy," said Steve Mazzucchi, managing editor at MadeMan.com. "I know the tool aisle (a.k.a. a man's playhouse) can be intimidating, so I've teamed up with the Craftsman brand to curate a list of my top picks for men. I'm hoping this list will result in one less returned sweater this year!"
