[Solution] A sheet section, disposed on the entire base of a shoe, and a support plate, formed from a material harder than the sheet section are provided. The sheet section and the support plate each comprises an inner curved surface section, curved in an arch shape with an end section standing upward, an outer wall section, curved in an arch shape, with an end section standing upward, and a central wall section, formed between the inner wall section and the outer wall section. The support plate comprises an inner ridge section, formed on the boundary between the inner wall section and the central wall section, and an outer ridge section, formed on the boundary between the outer wall section and the central wall section. A plurality of through-holes, arranged in the longitudinal direction of the support plate, are formed in the inner wall section and the outer wall section of the support plate. At least an upper surface of the central wall section located between the inner ridge section and the outer ridge section is curved so as to draw an arch in the longitudinal direction of the support plate. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A shoe insole comprising: a sheet section disposed on an entire base of a shoe, the sheet section including a toe section formed such that the toes of a foot can be disposed therein, a bulged section formed such that tips of metatarsal bones at which the width of the foot protrudes farthest to the left and right can be disposed therein, an arch section formed such that a section of the foot from the metatarsal bones to directly below the lateral malleolus can be disposed therein, and a heel section formed such that a section of the foot from directly below the lateral malleolus to the heel bone rearward of the lateral malleolus can be disposed therein; and a support plate that is adhered to a bottom surface of the arch section and the heel section of the sheet section, and that is formed from a material which is harder than the sheet section, wherein the sheet section and the support plate each comprises in the arch section: an inner wall section curved in an arch shape with an end section standing upward such that at least a first metatarsal bone is disposed therein; an outer wall section curved in an arch shape with an end section standing upward such that at least a fifth metatarsal bone is disposed therein; a central wall section formed between the inner wall section and the outer wall section, the support plate comprises an inner ridge section formed on a boundary between the inner wall section and the central wall section, and an outer ridge section formed on a boundary between the outer wall section and the central wall section, a plurality of through-holes, arranged in the longitudinal direction of the support plate, are formed in the inner wall section and the outer wall section of the support plate, at least an upper surface of the central wall section located between the inner ridge section and the outer ridge section is curved so as to draw an arch in the longitudinal direction of the support plate, and the central rear wall section forms a longitudinal direction arch shape nearly identical to the bottom surface of the central rear wall section of the sheet section and the inner ridge section and the outer ridge section. ### Claim 2 A shoe insole comprising: a sheet section disposed on an entire base of a shoe, the sheet section including a toe section formed such that the toes of a foot can be disposed therein, a bulged section formed such that tips of metatarsal bones at which the width of the foot protrudes farthest to the left and right can be disposed therein, an arch section formed such that a section of the foot from the metatarsal bones to directly below the lateral malleolus can be disposed therein, and a heel section formed such that a section of the foot from directly below the lateral malleolus to the heel bone rearward of the lateral malleolus can be disposed therein; and a support plate that is adhered to a bottom surface of the arch section and the heel section of the sheet section, and that is formed from a material which is harder than the sheet section, wherein the sheet section and the support plate each comprises in the arch section: an inner wall section curved in an arch shape with an end section standing upward such that at least a first metatarsal bone is disposed therein; an outer wall section curved in an arch shape with an end section standing upward such that at least a fifth metatarsal bone is disposed therein; a central wall section formed between the inner wall section and the outer wall section, the support plate comprises an inner ridge section formed on a boundary between the inner wall section and the central wall section, and an outer ridge section formed on a boundary between the outer wall section and the central wall section a plurality of through-holes, arranged in the longitudinal direction of the support plate, are formed in the inner wall section and the outer wall section of the support plate, at least an upper surface of the central wall section located between the inner ridge section and the outer ridge section is curved so as to draw an arch in the longitudinal direction of the support plate, and the sheet section and the support plate each comprises an extension section that protrudes upward so as to oppose, from a side surface, the heel section located directly below the lateral malleolus and/or a base end section of the arch section. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The shoe insole according to claim 1, wherein the support plate is formed with a degree of hardness of from 40D to less than 72D, and is arranged along a bottom surface shape of the sheet section with a fixed thickness. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The shoe insole according to claim 1, wherein the support plate is formed with a degree of hardness of from 40D to less than 65D, and is arranged along a bottom surface shape of the sheet section with a fixed thickness. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The shoe insole according to claim 1, wherein in the heel section of the support plate, an opening into which a portion of the sheet section is fitted is formed. ### Claim 6 (depends on 2) The shoe insole according to claim 2, wherein the sheet section comprises at least two foamed resin layers having different degrees of hardness and impact resilience coefficients, wherein a first layer on an upper surface side and a second layer provided below the first layer constitute impact resilient resin layers comprising, as a main component, an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, wherein a measured degree of hardness as measured using an Asker rubber durometer C-type and an impact resilience coefficient as measured according to ISO4662 of the first layer and the second layer satisfy the following relationships: Measured Degree of Hardness: the first layer
