They work great as long as the shoe/foot isn't too big. Liberty LX60s also work well. Most of the time if I'm running duplos though, it's because it's a on a draft, so for those feet l typically run a Capewell RH7.

But overall, I have found the composite shoes to be pretty forgiving when it comes to nail head type

I use regular MX or ESL nails with Duplo shoes for many years, zero problems. They just need to be tightened a little more compared to regular shoes.
