Snap last is like the Barrie -- good toe room -- with less volume and a more narrow heel. Your size in the snap is probably the same as your size in the Aberdeen / Copley / Hampton / Plaza ... one width or one half size greater than your Barrie size.
Grant is like the Barrie, but smaller.
This information I received from Alden a few years ago when I wrote and asked too many questions.
An Alden salesman once told me that the Snap IS the Grant, i.e., that they are two names for the same last. It does seem that the shape and fit is similar. But, I don't own any Grant last shoes, so I can't confirm this. Perhaps someone with the Grant longwing and the Snap captoe in the same size can say how identical they are.
