Black Nike running shoes with neon swoosh
Description
I lost my black Nike running shoes with a neon green swoosh yesterday around 3pm along the Boulder Creek Path by the Pearl Street Mall, near the Boulder Public Library. They're the worn pair I use for my weekday runs: black mesh uppers, neon-green swoosh, size 9.5, with a tiny coffee stain on the inside edge of the left shoe and a small scuff on the heel. One shoe has a loose lace, so you might notice the left lace bow is frayed a bit. They're my only pair of shoes for training for the charity 10K, and they hold sentimental value because they were a gift from my sister. If anyone found them, please message me; I would really appreciate getting them back, I am really worried about missing my daily runs.

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.
