Howto check that all types in variadic template are convertible to size_t?

How can I check that all types in a variadic template declaration can be converted to size_t:

// instantiate only if extents params are all convertible to size_t
template<typename T, size_t N>
template<typename... E>
Array<T,N>::Array(E... extents) {
    constexpr size_t n = sizeof...(extents);
    static_assert(n == N, "Dimensions do not match");
    // code for handling variadic template parameters corresponding to dimension sizes
}

With the following usage:

Array<double, 2> a(5,6);    // OK 2-D array of 5*6 values of doubles.
Array<int, 3> a(2,10,15)    // OK 3-D array of 2*10*15 values of int.
Array<int, 2> a(2, "d")     // Error: "d" is not a valid dimension and cannot be implicitly converted to size_t
