Great jeans, but have had bad luck with fit lately

I discovered Carhartt jeans about 5 years ago. Best jeans I ever wore. I prefer a tapered leg fit and nobody but Carhartt makes them this way anymore.I've always worn B18 34x30's but lately the last several pairs I've purchased the fit is inconsistent. Either the leg is too short or too long. The waist is too tight or too loose (and no, I haven't gained or lost weight, grew or shrunk either).After having washed and washed the last few pairs I've bought hoping they'd fit better and rendering them nonreturnable, I have given them to Goodwill.Not sure if the problem is with Carhartt or their manufacturer in Guatemala. I'll have find a local retailer where I can actually try them on before purchase.
