Abstract (en)
A foot cushioning device (10) having a body (11) defining a cup-like recess to receive at least the heel or oscalcis portion of the foot which is insertable in ordinary footwear. The exterior of the body (11) carries shock absorbing projections (28, 30) extending from at least the rear (20) of the heel portion to the underside of the foot. The projections deform and deflect to protect the foot by absorbing shock forces on the weight bearing portions of the foot. The cushioning device of the present invention may also be adapted to extend substantially along the entire plantar surface of the foot and may be integrally incorporated as a part of footwear.
