Depends how big your feet are, over size 13 you will be a little tight
I'm 184 and size 11 feet and I fit but my toes do compress this size, I don't own; I simply tried on for size in store a couple of years ago

Hi case, good question. The bag is a LONG which is the largest size available in this range. Without stretching it measures approx. 230cm from foot to top of hood OR 205cm to the open neck before head (does that make sense?). Drawing the foot box in with the cinch cord reduces overall length only slightly (a few cm's). Cinched up the footbox is about 33cm wide (10cm above end) and uncinched it's about 45cm wide (not stretched out)...clear as mud...see photos. I am 183cm tall, slim build, 12US/11UK/46.5EU shoe size and I find the bag plenty big enough, including the foot end. But I sleep mostly on my side, NOT with my feet sticking up! On warmer nights you often leave the foot end open (uncinched). I rarely used the hood tightly cinched, preferring a make shift pillow wedged into the hood (so it doesn't move) and a warm beanie. Remember that it's an ultra-light bag - with the flexibility of conversion to a partial or full quilt -so it's not intended to have the luxe features of bags twice the weight.

Just to add another data point, I owned one of these until recently (size long). I am 190cm, size 13 us feet, and never had an isssue with length. I am quite a slim build and actually found this a bit wider around the shoulders than I wanted. I.e. It shouldn't be too small for you.

G'day I'm 6'2" with a US 12 shoe. Have been using a micro III long the last few months and it's great. Light, compact, functional. Enough room but not too much.

Comfort 4°C I agree with, limit -2°C your going to want head-to-toe sleepwear and good ground insulation, minimal drafts. As per the ratings system.
