Besson Imperial/Yamaha 321 Eb Gig Bag Question

A little outside my knowledge base: I need a Gig Bag for my old Besson Eb; the trouble being, of course, the right-facing bell, making most bags backwards (valves on my back).
Anyone have a make/model recommendation (besides Cronkite)?

Alteri will make you one to your specs so that the valves will be forward and out of your back. Every bag I've owned from them has been great; I'm currently using one for my 983 and my bass trombone, and previously owned one for my old euphonium. All were top notch.

The Yamaha and Imperial are clones

My only complaint about Altieri is the difficulty in loading them. I had an end-loader case I loved for my 164 Alex... got it from Tuba World... I wish I knew who made it! It was a much stiffer case, with thicker, firmer padding. Ideas?
