Why would you say that?  Hotdogger has a better liner, but alot of pros rock the booter so it probably isnt a bad bood.

They are nearly the same, apart from:

The Hotdogger has a cloth cable tidy thats pretty sick.
Booter has a #4 tongue, Dogger has a #6.
The obvious color difference.

it depends what color you like and how stiff you like your boots.

THIS

There all the same, there just old Raichles with different tongues.

I can't believe some of you guys get consumed on which Fulltilt Boot to get.

haha exactly, the design is the same for all the boots, it's just a matter of color, flex, and bells and whistles

Yeesssss. Considerably lighter because it doesn't have the heavier rubber boot board, and the liner is lighter and a little thinner.

I really like my booters. I used to ski dalbello rampages, and I got horrible shin bang by the end of the year. With my booters last season, I never got even a little tiny bit of shin bang, at all. I never thought a boot could do that. I highly recommend them. Solid boot.

No, they are most definitely not the same boot. That's a pretty silly thing to say, because if they were the same boot they'd be called the same thing. And it's pretty simple to check out fulltiltboots.com and they will tell you all kinds of differences! I even made it clickable for you ^^^.

I ski a lot of park, probably 80-90% park. But I also ski a lot of pow and all mountain jibbing a bit, and they hold up fine. I think I'm just really used to a soft flex or something, because I am in no way held back by the soft flex of the booter. To give you an idea, I'm at my home mountain Park CIty when its not snowy, and at Alta when it is. I ski in the booter all the time, and I have never gotten shin bang, I love it.
