How should I clean the white leather parts?

Troubleshooting
Squeaking noise from the sole
This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try walking on different surfaces, or insert a powder (like talcum powder) between the insole and the midsole to absorb moisture causing friction.
Discoloration of white material
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean regularly with appropriate cleaners for leather and mesh. For minor yellowing, a specialized shoe cleaner or a paste of baking soda and water can sometimes help, but test on an inconspicuous area first.
Laces not staying tied
Ensure laces are threaded correctly. Try double-knotting them or replacing them with a different type of lace that offers better grip.
