Navy Brooks Brothers tuxedo, size 40R, lost
Description
I lost my navy Brooks Brothers tuxedo jacket and matching pants yesterday around 3pm outside the Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts on Broad Street in Center City Philadelphia. It's a navy blue tuxedo, jacket size 40R and pants 32x30, in excellent condition with only minor creases from travel. The inner lining has my initials 'LA' embroidered in gold thread, and there’s a small satin crest pin on the left lapel. This suit was a gift from my grandfather and carries a lot of sentimental value—I’m really hoping to get it back for an upcoming wedding. If anyone found it, please message me; I can identify it by the initials and the crest pin.

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.
