It might not be the only answer, but I'd say that's a first thing to address. Loosen the shoes a bit. If you have a system that allows you to loosen certain areas, try just loosening the toes. Different socks may be another solution to try.
Like others, my toes are first to show any restriction in circulation. For me, it's not a tingling per-se, but starts to feel as if my sock is bunched up around my toe. It isn't. It's just my toes telling me that the shoe is a bit tight. Sometimes on hot days I will have to readjust the shoe multiple times as my body reacts to the heat and exertion. I just keep easing the shoe a bit looser, especially on the first strap near my toes.
