I've had it with shinbang. 1080 boots?

I've got the worst shinbang ever right now, and I'm sick of it. My boots perform well, but they're too stiff and don't have enough padding. Does that thick padding on the tounge of the 1080s make THAT much of a difference?
And were people joking when they said ripping the hair out of your shins helps...cause I never wear shorts anyhow.
Other suggestions?

I've never had a problem in comfort with my 1080s. I have the custom surefoot in them. They're a little soft though.

^2 pairs of them actually, I also have Lange jib boots that I got free last march. So yeah, no real issues anymore except when I go back to using my nordicas (which are otherwise really nice) or land backseat, which will cause it in any boots. I still get it sometimes, though. Might invest in some booster straps for the hell of it.
