Shabbier and rattier
Mangier is the comparative form of mangy—more affected by mange, the skin disease caused by mites in animals, or more shabby and squalid in appearance.
A stray dog looks mangier than its well-kept counterpart.
A couch can look mangier after years of neglect: Each year the carpet looked mangier than the last.
