Disclosed is a midsole for a shoe which is capable of peacefully supporting the sole of the foot on which most of the wearer's weight may be applied, which is capable of performing the shock- dispersing function and the same foot rolling function, and which is capable of providing elastic air cushioning and shock-absorbing effects for relieving foot pressure. The midsole 11 has a shock- absorbing space 12 for providing a cushioning effect in an underside thereof, the shock- absorbing space 12 extending from a heel portion to a toe portion of the shoe along an outer periphery surface of the midsole 11. Cross sectional areas are defined by the shock- absorbing space 12 increasing from an arch-supporting middle segment to a heel-supporting rear segment or a toe- supporting front segment. A plurality of cutaway grooves 18 are formed at a bottom surface of the midsole 11 along the longitudinal direction of the midsole 11 at a certain distance. A plurality of ribs 17 protrude from an upper surface of the midsole 11 within the shock- absorbing space 12 in such a way as to align the position of the rib 17 with the position of the cutaway groove 18. |
