Here’s a list of what makes up the shoe, and what each part is called. You may have heard these terms used before, but just didn’t know what each part is called.

Tongue

The part that runs down the middle of the shoe which is usually cushioned for comfort/protection. Still confused? It’s the long piece under the shoe laces.

Shoe Lace

The strings used to lace up the shoes, so the shoe will stay in place while walking.

Toe Box
The part located on the toe area of the shoe. Usually squared/circled off from the rest of the shoe, and on some shoes it has the tiny dots in this area.

Insole

The pad on the inside of the shoes, you know the flat piece that your foot rest on with the name of your shoe or logo printed on it.

Midsole

The part that runs along the side of the shoe, right above the outersole. Mainly the part that gives most of the comfort.

Outersole (Sole)

Basically the bottom of the shoe, which most people just call the sole or bottom.

Upper

The "upper" part of the shoe, place where the designs and logo are. This part is above the midsole and goes up to the shoe lace holes.

Sock Liner

The ankle area on the inside of the shoe, usually a different color from the upper of the shoe. However, the sock liner can sometimes be the same color as the upper. Still confused? Well put it like this, it’s the part on the inside of the shoe that get’s all the little sock ball peeling stuck on it.
