Description
I’m missing my crimson Nike running shoes, size 9, after a jog yesterday around 3pm. I was at the Starbucks on University Drive by the Texas State Library when I last wore them. One shoe has a small blue tip on the laces and the other shows a tiny scuff on the heel—pretty easy to spot if you’re looking closely. They’re a bit worn but comfy, and they mean a lot to me because they were a gift from my mom. If anyone found them, I’d really appreciate getting them back; they’re my everyday pair for runs around San Marcos.

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.
