To hell with Sidi.
Moderators: robbosmans, Moderator Team
I am out for a new pair of white shoes. Will never buy white Sidi again as they have still not managed to "find" upper white material which does not get yellow after time. Mates out there with longer experience with steady white shoes? No Bont please.

As long als you pick the high gloss colors from Gaerne you should be fine.
Thought that Sidi finalli managed to solve the yellowing problem (with their high gloss white). Mine are still ok but not as white as my gaerne chronos.

+1 on the Fizik shoes. Mine are 2½ years and still white 
And there are very nice!
And there are very nice!Receiving info from other mates too I think that Sidi has "solved" their problem of yellowing of parts of their white upper from the Wire model on.
Though I am out of their range of customers .Sidi : The Unforgiven.
I will have a look around DMT,Gaerne and Fizik .All of them have models within their range which I like visually.
Thank you all for your input and feedback on your white shoes.

Shimano.
Stays white.
Also use melamine foam (often branded as a "magic eraser" cleaning product) to clean your shoes, regardless of color.
10-15 seconds your shoes that you haven't washed in months will look like they came out of the box in which they were sold.

Yeah dude (or dudette, making no assumptions!), when I started using them to clean my shoes my perspective on having white shoes totally changed - except for the rubber footings on the soles which have worn down from the occasional walking, the shoes look like NEW all the time, super clean and bright.
Under the brand name "Mr. Clean Magic Eraser" (and variants) they are the most expensive, and do work the best, but the other brands like Target's house brand or even the version that can be found at a 99 Cents store work just as well.
