Description
I lost my navy North Face parka, size L, with a removable faux-fur hood, yesterday around 3pm near the Milwaukee Public Library on Wisconsin Ave. It's in decent shape, but the zipper is a bit sticky and there is a small snag on the left cuff. Inside the left pocket I keep a laminated photo of my dog Pico, which helps me get through Milwaukee winters. The coat has sentimental value - it was a gift from my late aunt and I wore it every day to work and back. If anyone found it, I would really appreciate getting it back; I'm hoping to be reunited with it soon.

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.
