White accents are scuffed.

Gently wipe the affected areas with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Dry immediately with a clean cloth.

Shoes have a strong odor.

Remove insoles if possible and air the shoes out in a well-ventilated area. Sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors, then vacuum it out.
