Grey-blue Nike sneakers with white soles
Description
I lost my grey-blue Nike running shoes yesterday around 3pm. I had them outside the Oakwood Mall main entrance on Clairemont Avenue in Eau Claire after grabbing coffee nearby. They’re Nike Air, size 9, with a white sole that’s a bit worn. The left toe has a tiny blue stain, and the left lace is a bit frayed while the right heel shows a small scuff from a taped repair I did earlier this year. They really helped me through a knee-recovery phase and I wore them every day for training, so they feel sentimental. If you found them, I’d be so grateful to get them back. You can email [email protected] to set up a pickup near Oakwood Mall.

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.
