Gray Nike hoodie with red logo, size L
Description
I lost my gray Nike hoodie yesterday around 5pm near the Paul Bunyan statue in downtown Bemidji. It's a size L, soft fleece with a red Nike swoosh on the chest and red drawstrings. There's a tiny coffee stain on the right cuff and a small blue thread snag along the hem—that blue thread isn't part of the original stitching, you can notice it up close. I probably took it off while waiting for the bus by the Bemidji Public Library area, maybe near the statue area, but I can't be sure. This hoodie has sentimental value—it's a gift from my dad and I wear it all the time. If anyone found it, please reach out; I really need it 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.
