insoles
Cushions for shoes
Insoles are the inner soles of shoes—the part your foot rests on.
The term usually refers to removable inserts added for comfort, support, or fit: These insoles helped my plantar fasciitis.
Orthotic insoles correct foot alignment.
Cushioned insoles absorb impact.
Insoles can also adjust sizing when shoes run slightly large.
