Shock-absorption and comfort
I'd just turn the sentance around: The XXXXXXXXX insoles provide excellent shock-absorption and comfort
some web examples:
A good insole will provide extra shock absorption and support at the heel, ball and arch of the foot. That extra cushion reduces the stress and force on the rest of your body.
When purchasing a new pair of hiking boots, you should pay attention to the type of insole that comes with it. Make sure that it can be taken out.
HIGH-IMPACT PERFORMANCE & COMFORT
Engineered for high-impact activities, the Superfeet ORANGE features a shock-absorbing foam forefoot for people who punish their feet.

cushioning effect and comfort
An idea. I don't think shock absorber effect would fit the context.

: You were first. You don't really need to say "effect", and the Italian doesn't say anything about comfort. Shock absorption is fine too.
