I hate sweating in regular skate shoes, or any other sneakers really. I ran toe clips for about 1 week, and went right back to clipless. That and I used to get strange numb spots on my feet after about an hour or so in the saddle, not so with my clipless. I'm sure this is just a fit issue and in being so it is user error, but also contributed to my decision to go back to Mountain Bike shoes.
