Description
Yesterday around 3pm I lost my blue Nike running shoes near the Capitol Theatre on Saginaw Street in downtown Flint. They’re Nike Revolution 5, size 10 men’s, blue with neon lime laces and white soles, and they’re pretty worn from daily use. The left shoe has a small scuff on the outer heel and a frayed lace, plus a faint coffee stain on the toe. They’re my go-to gym shoes and I was wearing them to get back from work; they mean a lot to me because they were a gift from my sister and I really need them back. If anyone finds them, please reach out—I’ll be forever grateful.

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.
