Are all boots equal?

Yeah I'm going for the axial pros. TRQ just didn't secure the ankle. It makes the plastic "frame" kinda pointless. The axial pros on the other hand... One concern though, are they really hot? It doesn't seem like they get much air in there.

I have the axial pro new, but not the new,new pro's  [roll]

I have to say that they were very painful to wear for a long time until they kinda broke in. I've been told the torq pro' s are ones to wear. I rotate between my axials, sidi, and my favorite, Dainese Nighthawks.

My Axial Pro Ins aren't super hot, I never get really uncomfortable. I always wear Nike DriFit football socks, might try the Dainese racing socks to compare one day. But yeah... the boot is great at wicking away moisture/heat/sweat. If you need more breathability you can always perforate the fronts yourself with a leather punch (I might do this to my track pair).

You can see the custom perforation on their racer's boots here:
