thats probably more of the actual boot size, rather than overtightening causing that.
i tighten mine all the way, unless its cold or im feeling lazy, then i dont buckle the bottome 2 all the way.

There's 2 good reasons as to why you should do them tight. It prevents shin bang and you have more controll. Having them loose is just more comfortable.
