As for shoes I stick to New Balance sneakers (do they still call them that). I swear by them or Avia. Dicks sporting goods sells a lot of them and they are frequesntly a loss leader (esp the cross trainers). I also am going to get a pair of those gel heel cups at WalMart which shoud help in dressier shoes or those long days in AFOs.

As for hands and fingers: I should own stock in the Oxo Good Grips line as my kitchen is full of thier suff. Best can opener and scissors I have ever used, not to mention the peeler, knives, dish brush.. Just go to http www.oxo.com just click on "Products" tab on top of page. They are carried in Bed, Bath and Beyone, Target, etc

I bought my parents an Oxo can opener for Xmas a few years back...first can opener we've had that didnt fall apart immediately and it's easy for everyone in my house to hold.
