No, it isn't padded on the bottom - but as Bernard says, the bag is.

When I use the insert in other "satchel" shaped bags I just have a suitably
but piece of 1/8 or 1/4 inch closed cell foam I stick in the bottom of the
bag - I just use stuff that has come in boxes as packing -  (or you could
make slightly more spiffy ones cut to for each of the three compartments.
