A shoe insole ( 111 ) for diabetics is provided with a sole base body ( 136 ), a sole covering layer ( 137 ) and with a number of cushion-like layers ( 112, 113, 114, 115, 116 ) distributed over the surface of the sole. The cushion-like layers consist of at least one first cushion-like layer ( 112 ) in the forefoot joint area, a second cushion-like layer ( 113 ) in the midfoot/tarsus transition area, and of a third cushion-like layer ( 114 ) in the midfoot/heal transition area. These cushion-like layers serving to assist venous blood draining are each subdivided into individual plateau-like areas ( 118 to 127 ) that are adjacent in the transversal direction of the sole surface ( 117 ) while being separated from one another. The top side of the cushion-like layers also covered by the sole covering layer ( 137 ) is raised relative to the level of the top side of the sole base body ( 136 ). The aim of the invention is to provide a shoe insole of the aforementioned type that, while providing a lasting assistance of arterial inflow into the foot or foot sole area, has a continuing positive influence on the foot or foot sole areas endangered by a diabetic metabolic condition. To this end, at least one indentation ( 161, 162 ) is provided between the first cushion-like layer ( 112 ) in the forefoot joint area and the second cushion-like layer ( 113 ) in the midfoot/tarsus transition area. Said indentation serves to relieve the pressure on the midfoot bone capitulum(s) and emanates from the top side of the sole base body ( 136 ).
