Electric blue Nike swim shorts with lime-green drawstring
Description
I was wrapping up a post-run cooldown yesterday around 3pm near the entrance to Carrier Park on Riverside Drive in Asheville when these shorts slipped from my bag. They’re Nike Swim shorts, men’s size M, electric blue quick-dry fabric with a lime-green drawstring and a white Nike swoosh on the left leg. There’s a tiny embroidered sun on the back waistband and a small chlorine stain near the hem. The fabric’s a bit worn from chlorine but still comfy—and they mean a lot to me because they were my go-to swimming shorts after long runs. If you found them, I’d really appreciate getting them back.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
