First pair of Joslins and this happened after 20min walk. Is this bad?

I've seen that on a few cupsoles out of the box, just used a little glue and had no issues. Hell I've even got Jordans with this and my only problem is that I'm a perfecectionist when it comes to aesthetics so even the smallest glue stain drives me nuts.
Thanks. I'll do that. Stuff like this freaks me out every time especially with barely used shoes.
I've had that happen with numerous stitched cupsoles over the years: Nike, etnies, es, lakai, etc. Most of the time, it's not an issue. Just snip the excess or glue it down and you're chillin!
The only time it's an issue is when it's on the toe area. When wearing the outsole down, sometimes the threading rips and it comes loose internally. You can sometimes feel it on the inside with your toes. I've had to snip/shoe goo/glue threading down ans continue skating the shoes to make them last until I could skate new ones.
TL;DR - no issue since it's on the heel and it shouldn't affect the quality/performance of the shoe!
