That is odd. I'm just saying that you measured all your other SB boxes across the past 3 box eras and they're all roughly the same size. That means SOMETHING is funky about that pair. I don't know what, or why.

I have three blue boxes and my "patagonia" lows had a long box, but my koston low and knicks high had normal box fwiw

Yeah man, I mean unless you're trying to file a dispute over possibly getting some funky product, I'd just enjoy and try to forget about it. It might just be a shady replacement box or maybe it's just the worst case production QC...Yea, I'm not sure what to make of it. Just gonna enjoy em when the weather becomes nice again in the spring.

Yea, I'm not too concerned about them being fake, seems like too much work to hide a receipt, age it, slap a store sticker on the box, plus the shoes quality, stitching and everything is on point. The mesh tongue and everything is aged and slightly yellowed on the shoe too. Plus it would be a hassle to return em since I'd have to pay out the *** to ship em back to the states. I'm not team OCD, so the box doesn't bother me much, just excited to finally have these.
Maybe it's a size 12 box that they accidentally slapped a size 11 sticker on.

My Rain Dunks in the taped box is slim and tall as well. It messed up my stack but life goes on.

Really wish I had made the transition to Dunk SB's as my staple shoe when the Concord and Space Jams dropped. 
Especially those Space Jams. So smooth.

Good to hear. That's the only reason I noticed, put it in my stack and it was sticking out 2 inchesMy Rain Dunks in the taped box is slim and tall as well. It messed up my stack but life goes on.
Yea that's the exact same thing that's going on with mine. This makes me feel better

Yes, it's normal. My 720s, Skate or Dies, Ms. Pac-Mans, and Gibsons all came in long skinny boxes...

Concords dropped 4/20/2013. Not that long ago haha. Space Jams were a 2011 release if I remember correctly. Maybe 2012, I know they were a blue box.Really wish I had made the transition to Dunk SB's as my staple shoe when the Concord and Space Jams dropped.

Still doesn't explain why both "blue box" from the same era of the same size is 2 different sizes.
FYI. I purchased Gino 3's when they first released in the stores and remembered them coming in a skinny SB box.
Maybe check your loons?

DS Loons get $100 or less, doubt there even fakes of those.

I've said this for years (about all kinda of shoes) but sadly it is not true as I've come to find.
EDIT: Obviously there's more fake Tiffs than fake Loons but the point is that these companies reproduce EVERY shoe in existence because $30 is better than $60 to some people.

My size 9.5 tape boxes are bigger than the size 9 I have, like markedly bigger. The 9.5 pink and earlier boxes I have are longer and thinner like my size 9 blue box. It's nothing to worry about.

Well, that is a completely different scenario. I've had many different sizes from 9-11 and the box sizes make big jumps from one shoe size to another. His boxes are the same shoe size, so the size difference seemingly should be 0 (since they're from the same era).
