English term or phrase: Trip over the front end of the sandal/flip flop
Hi. I am translating this from English to Spanish. I have included the original phrase in English and my attempt at a translation in Spanish.

In the event of an emergency, you are more prone to trip over the front end of the sandal/flip flop due to them causing you to walk more abnormal that usual.

Utilizar sandalias o chanclas puede aumentar la probabilidad de que te tropieces durante una emergencia ya que hacen que camines de forma irregular.

Alternatives:
-Utilizar sandalias o chanclas DURANTE UNA EMERGENCIAS puede aumentar la probabilidad de que te tropieces ya que hacen que camines de forma irregular.
-En el evento de emergencia, es mas probable que te tropieces con tus sandalias o chanclas ya que hacen que camines de forma irregular.

Explanation:
En caso de emergencia, es más probable que tropieces si llevas puestas/si vas con sandalias u ojotas, ya que no te permitirán caminar como lo haces habitualmente/normalmente.
