Description
Yesterday around 3pm, I realized my black North Face jacket was missing after I stopped for coffee near Millennium Park. It's a men's size M, all-black with a grey fleece lining and a small coffee stain on the right sleeve. It has a red hiking-club patch on the left chest and a slightly faded logo. I last had it near the Crown Fountain, on Michigan Ave near Monroe Street. This jacket is more than warmth to me—it's a gift from my grandma and feels like a little piece of her memory. I’d be incredibly grateful to get 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.
