Black Nike running shoes, size 9, scuffed
Description
I lost my black Nike running shoes, size 9, yesterday around 3pm. They’re the Pegasus model with an orange swoosh and a small blue star sticker on the tongue. The left toe has a tiny tear, and the laces are a bit frayed from a knot I use for extra grip. Inside the right shoe there’s a fabric label with the initials 'PP' stitched in light blue. I wore them yesterday on a run through the Empire Mall area, near the 41st Street parking lot and the Falls Park bike path in Sioux Falls. They were a gift from my sister, so they mean a lot to me. If you find them, please email [email protected].

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.
