footbeds

Inner sole cushions

Footbeds are the interior surfaces of shoes or sandals where the foot rests.

The term usually refers to removable or replaceable insoles designed for comfort or support: These hiking boots come with contoured footbeds.

Orthopedic footbeds correct alignment or cushion problem areas.

The word is most common in outdoor and athletic footwear contexts.
