Thanks. I also found "semelle intercalaire", which also refers to the part between the outer and the inner sole.

Explanation:
The Grand Dictionnaire routes enquiries for shank board to the shoe board page. Both the Termium and Grand Dictionary give "carton à chaussure" and the Termium also gives "carton pour chaussure."


American Leather Chemists Association: Dictionary
Shank: That part of the shoe that comes under and supports the arch of the foot. Shank also refers to leg positions of hide pattern. (See Fig. 1.)

Shank Piece: A reinforcement for the shank, placed between insole and outsole, usually made of metal, wood, leather, or fiberboard.

Board Lasted Board lasted shoes have a sturdy insole board running the entire length of the foot bed. This type of construction provides the greatest stability
http://shoesglossary.com/index.php?a=list&d=1&p=1&w1=B

Shank board is used in the shoe industry for supporting the sole of the foot, so medium levels of hardness, folding, and stiffness are required. In this study, shank boards were made using unbleached kraft pulp and old kraft bags with the sequential addition of 18-20% synthetic latex , 1.0% epoxy resin, 15% clay, 1.0% regulator, and 1.0% wet-end coagulant. Then using a hot press, boards of 3000 g/m2 were produced. Results show that shank board had hardnesses which ranged from 95 to 98 and densities which ranged from 0.99 to 1.06 g/cm3. To increase the board folding, 2% water-based polyurethane was added to the board, and the 90° angle folding test for more than 15 times was achieved. This result is better than a Canadian product (10 times). The approximate production cost of shank board (90 x 150 x 0.25 cm) was NTD 40(~USD 1.153)/piece, which is acceptable for middle- and small-scale paper mills.
