"Innovation comes in many forms. Pro Tool Innovation Award winners push boundaries. They typically introduce features no one has ever seen, create new battery-powered solutions, redefine what compact tools can do, or even design products at a lower price than you would otherwise expect for the performance they deliver," stated Kenny Koehler, Editor-in-Chief at Pro Tool Reviews. "The work of teams and individuals who dare to think outside the box can be seen all over the Pro Tool Innovation Awards."

One of the most notable wins is the new CRAFTSMAN OVERDRIVE™ Mechanics Tool Set, an innovative new line of hand tools featuring sockets, wrenches and ratchets designed to provide industry-leading access and gripping solutions for common automotive and maintenance tasks.
