I need a triathlon tie and this was the only thing I found with google. Is this triathlon tie nerdy? What about the USA flag colors as the border? Does anyone else know where I can find one?

Ha! Hell no! I LOVE it.

But I feel like you should ask other people besides other triathletes about this...becuase you know how we tend to be...if it's got a swimmer, a biker, or a runner on it, we're wearing it, or putting it on our car, or our waterbottle, refrigerator etc.

Seriously though- It's sweet.

If you pretend the images are birds or trees or whatnot, it's not a terribly attractive tie.  Just my 2c.

I like it, but probably wouldn't wear it to the office.  A bit too "busy" for our conservative dress code.

Yeah...the tie is hidious.  The colors are too much, especially with the red, white and blue running through it.  Pass on it and go with what Bear posted.  Those are simple and fashionable.

Wow! that is one ugly tie. Looks like a clip on from the 70's. Wear it with a nice polyester sport coat.

Stunningly bad. Go with Vineyard Vines--good stuff all around.

I like the ones Bear posted much better as well. However, the one you posted isn't as bad as, say, the Redskins ties some people from around here wear. Now those are ugly.

Not a big fan of theme ties despite the fact that they are of the triathlon variety.  Mother-in-law buys theme ties for me all the time - when will she understand the fact that I don't wear them means I don't like them!

Wow Bear, I didn't picture you to be a Vineyard Vines wearing guy!   I love that stuff - it's good quality and so cute!  We've got a bunch of it here - I would go with their stuff for sure.

IMHO, novelty ties are never a good idea...unless it was a gift from your child and you are forced.

Ok, probably going with Bear's rec unless someone comes up with a better one. Thanks for all the opinions.
