Shoes? It depends on what type you are wearing ... going through "regular" airport security first, you can show them to the security officer and ask if you should take them off.
Once downstairs in Pre-Clearance, you do have to take your shoes off.
If you are travelling in Business Class, there is Fast Track for "regular" airport security ... and there is a Business Class lane downstairs at the entrance to Pre-Clearance.

Hmm, so KDS and USPremExecflyer have had different experiences. I do wish there were true Precheck at DUB. It would make me more willing to fly via DUB.

TSA Pre-check is a domestic (US) program.
It does not apply at overseas airports.
(Yes, it's available at some Canadian airports in the special zones where USCBP operates pre-clearance ... as the US and Canada are frontier neighbours).
Wikipedia on pre-clearance ... and legal jurisdiction at DUB

Who administers security at overseas airports in the US pre-clear areas?
