I like to create list of cases that fit German trombones. German trombones have longer slides (especially older ones with a friction joint - about 89 cm or 25 inches) and wider bells (about 23 cm or 9 inches). Unfortunately, I just know one:

Bags 4326; see for instance [url]https://www.musikhaus-lange.de/product/0142276/? (Bags doesn't even list it on their own website. Thus, I am not even sure whether they still make them.)

Are there others?

Thank you for suggesting kariso. Very nice. They don't seem to have a seller in the US unfortunately.

Does anyone know whether the fiberglass cases Eastman CAT16 from Jakob Winter (for instance available at Hickeys) would fit a German trombone?

Noah Gladstone at www.brassark.com says he can “source” a Kariso case for the Brad Close sacbuts he sells. Perhaps Noah would be able to order one more easily...
