Description
I lost my red Nike running shoes yesterday around 3pm. They're Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 39 in crimson red with a white Swoosh and black laces. The left shoe has a tiny frayed white stitch at the toe, and there's a small coffee stain on the inner heel. They’re a size 9 and fairly scuffed from daily runs. I left them outside the Genetti Hotel on Market Street, in Williamsport, near the corner of 3rd Street after grabbing a quick coffee. It would mean a lot if someone found them—they were a gift from my sister and hold sentimental value. I really need them back!

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.
