Blue Nike swim shorts, men's size M
Description
I'm posting because I lost my blue Nike swim shorts, men’s size M, yesterday around 3pm. I was swimming and then changing along the riverbank near the Walkway Over the Hudson in Poughkeepsie, Hudson Valley, and I must have dropped them by the stairs leading down to the water. They’re navy blue, knee-length mid, quick-dry fabric with an orange drawstring and a white Nike swoosh on the left leg. There’s a small bleach stain near the hem and the drawstring toggle is a bit worn, which makes them a bit easy to spot if found. They were a gift from my sister and I’ve worn them every summer since; they’ve got sentimental value, and I’d really appreciate getting them back if someone turned them in.

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.
