Is it good for SEO to add same word in indifferent case to match all possible search key word. Like
<meta name="keywords" content="shoe, Shoe, SHOE ">
Is it considered good or duplicate?

No. Search engines understand these things extremely well. You should not be trying to manage keywords so tightly. As well, the keyword meta-tag is effectively useless.– closetnocCommented Mar 18, 2015 at 16:32

1To begin, the keyword meta tag should not be used. Stop. Do not bother. You are wasting your time. Otherwise, in all your other tags such as title tag, description meta-tag, header tags, and so forth, use what makes sense "once" or twice as it fits. Be conversational and compelling. Make these tags for humans (sentences/headlines), but do try and put any important keyword in order from left to right and as close to the beginning of your sentence as possible.– closetnocCommented Mar 18, 2015 at 16:42

Ditch the meta-keyword tag, or at the very least, ditch the same repeating words regardless of whether the letters are upper or lower case. Google doesn't pay much attention to meta-keywords and I believe Bing will use them against you if they are used the way you do. You're trying to rank for a keyword in an artificial way.
The only meta tag you should use to add the relevant keyword only once to is the meta description tag. For example:
<meta name="description" content="Find out how large black shoes are made">
And if you really need to rank for shoes, maybe find another word close enough to it you can use in your description. For example:
<meta name="description" content="We sell shoes, and other footwear in our large online store">
