Yep- calling SHENS on this claim. Absent some AMAZING facts and documented scientific evidence, there is no basis for shoes to spontaenously combustion. This will be treated by Adidias as more like someone who's kid ruined an expensive pair of shoes doing someting silly trying to get a free replacement. If expect to dispel that notion you will need to hire an expert,likely a chemist, to demonstrate how the shoes spontaneously combust. If not, this likely goes no where.
