Sounds like a job for Flipper Zero.
Probably overkill and possibly even overly complicated for an MCU.
This probably just requires some good old reverse engineering the original apps bluetooth API and an app to connect to the shoes.
If they're really lucky, it's simple unencrypted packets they can just capture via Wireshark, but I really haven't looked into it any further than this article summary, so I could be wrong.
If if they can work by simple packet replay, that would be the most simple, and definitely doable by the Flipper.
