Honestly, I'm a big fan of bad ties. But, What makes a truly hideous tie? Is it the color? The shape? The presence of marine life? The truth is, there’s no one answer, which is why we’ve given you 10. It doesn’t matter how you knot it, ties don’t get much worse than this.

Check out 10 ties to avoid buying for Father’s Day.

Salami Tie

How can a tie be so ugly and so delicious at the same time? This tie gets big points for artistic vision and execution. Unfortunately, it loses most of them for making us want to throw up. We recommend you make dad a salami sandwich instead. Anton Repponen, price not listed
