Shoe and underwear recommendations? (self.mtf)

Anyone have any recommendations for larger walking shoes for women that are fairly durable? I'm not looking for super stylish, just shoes that will last. Same goes for the underwear, as getting stuff that lasts is a real pain when you don't know which are the better brands. I'd prefer more expensive stuff if folks know that it's good quality.

For shoes? I recommend any pair of decent basketball shoes really. They tend to have larger sizes while looking pretty nice. Sometimes more pricey but they hold us pretty well, I got a pair of Adidas Superstars that have been going strong for a few years and I got them on a 70% sale.

For underwear I got a few pairs from En Femme for tucking and they’ve lasted me quite a while now and only a few thread ever came loose. They range from 30-35 usd but they work well and again they last a long time.
