The shoes are very comfortable, exactly what I was looking for.  The sizing is slightly bigger (especially since it is leather and loosens a bit).  I wish I got a 7.5 and not an 8 (not sure if they do have 1/2s).  I did follow the other reviews, and did NOT get a wide, as I might have otherwise.  Usually I am a wide, but I got the N size which has worked out well, after just wearing it 2x.
