These were given to me. Thus far, I've been wearing them exclusively with a solid white oxford and khakis. Any other suggestions so I can get more use out of them? Thanks!!

I'd keep ties one and three and wear with a blue or gray suit and throw the other ties away.

Ties 2 and 6 could probalby be used casually with the right linen suit or jacket.
Ties 4 and 5 look from the 70's (in a bad way) and are really hard to pair... store them away and maybe in 10 or 20 years they can be used again.

Always a chance for some serious utilization at retro theme party. Otherwise, I'd ditch everyone except #3 as well
