i have a pair of Lange Inferno boots. they are mostly backcountry and big mountain boots but they can be used in the park. my question is they hurt the bones on my feet real bad. i have bunions on the outside of my foot that aren't really big but this boot just seems to put so much pressure on them. any ways to fix this? i know i should just get new boots but i don't have the money atm

Go to a shop. Go see a bootfitter. They can either lessen the material in the liner or punch out the boot to make it wider around the bunions.

But mostly. Go see a bootfitter.

If you take it to the shop you bought it from they will usually do some initial boot work for free. A boot grind or boot punch is your best hope imo, shaving the liner won't do very much, as the liner should be at least somewhat yielding/spongy.
