Navy blue Nike hoodie with white logo
Description
I lost my navy blue Nike zip-up hoodie yesterday around 3pm outside the Starbucks on Fourth Street in Winston-Salem. It's a men's size L fleece hoodie, with a bright white Nike swoosh on the chest and two silver zipper pulls that sometimes catch on the fabric. There's a small coffee stain on the left sleeve and a slightly frayed navy drawstring at the hood. It’s my go-to casual wear and has sentimental value—I got it as a gift from my sister, who used to wear it with me when we hung out in Old Salem. If anyone found it, I’d really appreciate getting it back; it’s not like I have many other hoodies this comfy.

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.
