I love GS breeches. They are one of the very, very few that fit me well and do not hurt (I had extensive abdominal surgery several years ago- makes clothing tricky). I have been able to grab a 26L pair off of eBay, but I’m having trouble finding any more, as they have been discontinued. Has anyone found a good alternative to/substitute for GS?
Try Tempi breeches. I think Dressage Extensions may still carry them.
I have recently found that Gersemi fit me very similarly to the old GS. You may also find success with older Trainer’s Choice. I wore FITS for quite a while because they seemed the least challenging to buy with confidence of fit.
Thank you! It seems that Dressage Extensions has phased out the Tempi breeches as well 
But if anyone wears a teeny-tiny 22, the clearance pair is only $50!
I do have a pair of FS Trainer’s Choice that I like. I think I might try to find a low-rise pair next time to see if that works a little better. Thanks for the Gersemi recommendation! That is a new brand on me- but I like what I see so far online.
Any thoughts on Golden Dress?
Golden dress are great, according to a friend who has a pair.
Kentucky, Pikeur, Euro-Star and Arista would be the closest in term of quality similar to GS.
Pikeur and Cavallo became my go-to breeches when I couldn’t get Schumachers. I have a few pairs of Golden Dress and like, but don’t love them.

I like ‘em, and just bought a really nice pair on E-Bay. They and Trainers’ Choice have a nice hip and thigh allowance and don’t give you that “sausage casing” look and feel. Vintage Kentucky’s and Euro-Stars when you can find them are also great; 26 is a size that’s offered on E-Bay a lot, you’ll find some good ones right now!
