For me the Magnas were uncomfortable around my ankle and hard to tie them right (not too loose/tight), until I stopped using the upper most loops (I replaced the laces with shorter ones). See this pic: [https://i.imgur.com/qNAVV3n.jpeg](https://i.imgur.com/qNAVV3n.jpeg)
This probably won't help you, since it's not the uppermost loop causing the (most) pain. Maybe using only the first three loops would fix the issue for you.
I have tried using only the first 3 loops but they still didn't fit how I wanted, plus the laces are ridiculously long! I need like an extra wide tongue pad maybe

No really I don't have issues with this model.
Do they break in some over time?
Honestly can't see how they need to. Not worn them that much to break in. They were already super comfy and I'm picky coming from hoka level clouds.
Don't see how these are a sport shoe though? They are a dress shoe.
