Since most stress fractures occur in the feet, it is important that you have the right footwear for the activity your are doing. Your old worn sneakers that are comfortable may not be giving you enough protection.
Replace old and worn shoes with new shoes that are designed for the activity that you are doing. Try to avoid footwear that is stiff or uncomfortable. If the shoe is uncomfortable, it is not going to serve you well and may put you at greater risk for a stress fracture. The shoe should feel comfortable when you first try it on. If it does not, don't think that it will get better after it is "broken in" - it won't and you may have a stress fracture by then.
