Trainers tongue problem

[LuckyCharmz]

I’ve got a pair of Skechers trainers, the tongue has a very hard/ stiff edge and digs in to the front of my ankle, maybe because they’re a bit too long?
Does anyone have any ideas for what I could do? Has anyone had similar issues (I know some adidas trainers have the same problem). Thankyou.

I take the laces out of the the top holes and I fasten on the holes below, so I just ignore the holes at the top, then I can pull the tongue forward so it's not touching my ankle.

Thanks for your reply @Dollyparot200
I did that last night when I wore them, but even laced one hole below, I couldn’t bend the tongue away from my ankle unfortunately.
