I really do like these shoes.  They're sturdy and good for walking... and cute on top of that.  Most of the comfy walking shoes out there are grannyish, but not these.  Sadly, though, these rub against the back of my heel probably because they are slightly too big/long.  A 7.5 wasn't available, but even if it was i think it would have been too tight across the top (the front fits perfectly in the 8).  So i am keeping the 8s and hoping that a heel insert will take care of the problem.  I recommend these shoes.
