A shoe (10), particularly a high-heeled shoe, containing a convex midfoot support structure (40) formed of a conformable or compressible cushioning material is sized and shaped to have a height (h1) sufficient to contact and to support at least a portion of the midfoot area (116) of the wearer's foot (110). The midfoot support (40) is constructed of an elastomeric material with a maximum thickness of between 10 mm and 22 mm, and includes a support platform (42) and side walls (44 and 46). Preferably, a forefoot support (58) is also provided on the upper surface of the insole (20) in the forefoot portion (28) of the insole (20).
