okay, if this is a thing whenever you buy new shoes, then you need to buy ones that fit better - especially if even loosening the laces doesn't help, because that's what laces are for. If however you find they soon stretch to fit you (without crushing your feet to fit them), then it's up to you whether it's enough of a problem to want to deal with.

What about trying a wider width or going up half a size or a full size and using insoles or wearing thicker socks?
New shoes often have get hold of the feet of some people. These kind of issues are with many people. You can apply oil to shoes for few days after which it should be fine.

@jno how do i buy or i should say find the right kind of shoes for me then, what am i supposed to look for, because as far as i know there are normal shoes and x wide, or at least to the goes i want on amazon. i'd rather not deal with this problem.

Leather shoes need to be broken in so some discomfort is to be expected initially. But if it's all at the throat, you could try rethreading the laces and perhaps not pulling them quite so tightly.
I understand what you are saying now I've seen your Amazon link. I always wear leather shoes without a problem however last year I bought a treadmill and running shoes. My trainers are tight as you describe but I wonder if that is because they are designed for running? If you are not running, have you tried a more general purpose trainer? Also the reviews are interesting on the Amazon link, a number of people agree with you but the runner and badminton player like them.

i do run allot and love it, thing is though that i have school and school lasts at least 7 hours, meaning i have to sit still allot. so when i do get a chance to run i will. but do to the virus i haven't bin going out much.
also my last shoes had at least 5 holes in them(7 if you include the 2 holes in the inside soles) and the ones i wore before the new shoes aren't the most comfortable

to better fraze what i mean by my question the most tightness is neer where the tonge attaches to the shoe, like far more tightness then anywhere else
neo_n, shoes are like other clothing, one man's 7 is another man's 9. There's no millimetre-perfect definition of a size and shape. The best thing is to go to a big shop and just keep trying on shoes till you find a pair that fit. Or have them hand-made by craftspeople who don't come cheap, or go for soft shoes like Skechers, which is what I wear.

When I was little my parents often got me shoes that felt tight, and they'd just say that I would grow into them. I always did - but now in my old age I have all sorts of foot problems. It's worth finding a proper fit even if it does take time.
