Question 1

When it is fully reclined, what is the distance from head to foot?

Accepted Answer

64-1/8” outside 63-5/8” inside, the full dimensions are below but probably not helpful choosing a chair size.

Using the person’s leg length, standard size is good for inseam to 31”, XL is good for inseam to 35”, over 35” choose the Lafuma Evolution, it’s the only one without a lower cross bar, which presses on the Achilles tendon behind the heel when the leg is too long for the chair.

By shoulder, the standard chair has 17” suspended  the XL has 19” suspended. By men’s jacket size standard to 40”, or 42” if a rounded shoulder plane,  choose XL for 42” square/flat shoulder plane or over 44” jacket.

By weight, Lafuma shows the standard chairs as safe to 140kg (308 lbs) and the XL as safe to 150kg (330 lbs). Experience suggests the standard size elastic cord chair as best under 200 lbs, and the XL size elastic cord chair to 220 lbs, the elastic rubber “clip” chairs hold weight with less sagging but clips may be more firm than desirable for the svelte and near svelte. If that’s too vague then if you’re female at a “fashionable” size for you, or could be if you really wanted, then the elastic strands are likely to have a pleasingly comfortable stretch while the clips are more likely to feel too firm. If you’re a male it’s simpler, under 160 lbs 32” or smaller waist then elastic strands, to 200lbs / 35” waist by firm/soft mattress preference, over 200 lbs/ 35” waist, an elastic strand chair is likely to sag like a hammock, but if you love a soft chair then get one and buy new elastics every year. Actually changing the elastics can wait until permanent stretching is apparent, but not longer, to avert a sudden break. A sudden break should be assiduously avoided. If the unoccupied seat isn’t taut and sags even a little, changing the elastics is overdue.

Dimensions: from the Lafuma web site, the Futura XL’s dimensions are;
Closed dimensions L/H/D: 76 cm / 106 cm / 22 cm   
Open dimensions L/H/D: 76 cm / 91 à 125 cm / 83 à 163 cm

Translation from Franglais and European measurement conventions,
Closed lying flat on the floor 29-15/16” wide   41-3/4” long  8-5/8” tall 
Open most upright  29-15/16” wide  49-3/4” long  35-7/8” tall 16-1/2 seat height
Open most reclined 29-15/16” wide  64-1/8” long  32-5/8” tall 15-3/4 seat height

Width is measured from the outer edges of the armrests   
Length is measured outer edge of head bar to outer edge of foot bar without fabric 
Length is 1-1/2” less between inner edge of head bar and foot bar
Height is measured from the top of the head bar to the floor
Seat height is at the intersection of the back and seat planes, the geometry 
of a typical seated user makes the actual minimum distance from fabric to 
floor nearly the same.

Question 2

What is the clip style?  r-clip or rsxa?  and what is the lafuma model number?

Accepted Answer

Hi, the RCLIP or RSXA are recliners models as well as the FUTURA model.
The reference of the FUTURA is LFM3118 or LFM3121 for the XL size.

Question 3

225$?  Is it an 8 pack of chairs?

Accepted Answer

The chair is fine. 
I ordered 4 chairs. They said they would be in 6/13. One chair arrived. I have had no communication about the other three. I have since canceled the others.
