how come you often get glue stains on new footwear now

a couple of nike trainers i bought and asics too, well over a year ago but only just opened have visible glue stains, this really narks me because i like things to be near as perfect as possible....i have ocd....i still wear these footwear but the glue stains bother me , i'm not sure what can be done about it do you think?

Never had that problem with shoes which 100% leather and have sewn seams...
