Single Shoe Discovery at Denver Airport!

On Thursday last week, a Lost Soles affiliate on her way to a convention in Denver spotted this single shoe riding continuous loops on the baggage carousel at Denver International Airport. Alone and obviously unclaimed, this solitary neoprene sandal was also riding alongside another peculiar object…a piece of driftwood or a log of some sort?? When was the last time you took your favorite piece of wood on vacation to Hawaii? It is unclear at this time if the abandonment of these items are related. As of Friday, both shoe and log remain D.O.A at D.I.A.-J. Snipes

It’s A Bird! It’s A Plane! It’s…A Pair Of Ice Skates???


This week’s Lost Sole submittal is the first of its kind from a local man walking his dog in a Southside neighborhood. As they prepared to cross the street, the dog stopped, looked up, tilted his head to one side and stared at the dangling pair of bladed leather soles. Both now bewildered at the site, the man quickly withdrew his camera for a photo. “My dog should really get the credit for this unusual find”, said the man who works as a haunted house actor and bingo announcer. A nearby neighbor told Lost Soles that they believe a young man in his mid 20’s has been using the power lines that cross Noble street to practice his tightrope walking for a circus job and may have fallen in a recent practice session…leaving his skates behind in the process. If this were January, we might speculate that for some reason, a person was up there trying to perfect the triple axel! -Lost Soles Press

Latest Single Shoe Encounter: One Sad Sole…


This weeks Lost Sole encounter was one of great isolation and despair. Wet, worn and nearly flattened, this empty sole was left to the perils of a heavily traveled interstate. The substantial rainfall at the time this photo was taken, only added to the extreme sense of desolation and abandonment. Anyone with information on the whereabouts of its sole mate is asked to contact the Lost Sole Patrol at 1-800-Lostsol.-J. Snipes
