Hi,
I am 6 ft 1 in tall and wondering which length I should go with as I am not able to try the bag before buying. Are the Marmot sleeping bag lengths usually spot on, or are they known to be big, so I may fit in a regular size?
Thanks

Yeah, the long for sure. Aside from just comfort and the extra room to stuff clothing into the foot box, when you sleep (especially on your back) and your feet relax, you're taller than 6'-1" because of plantarflexion.

Go for the long. It might be a little heavier and slightly more $ - but way more comfortable.
