you sure you want white shorts?
someone probably will post some horrible pics of why you might want to reconsider....
i think they tend toward a transparent effect that can be grossly revealing....

I believe Castelli makes some. Try looking at www.worldcycling.com for a pair.
Oh, and a +1 to what Ostuni said... yikes!

If you're gonna wear white cycling shorts, you might want to do everyone a favor and wear gym shorts over them! There's a reason most of them come only in black!

White shorts + road grime + rain = very bad look.
Only Robbie McEwen and the fdj.com team can pull off white knicks.

You'll also need to change to a white saddle to avoid dark skids on your ass.

In a couple of rides they will have dye from the saddle all over them. So whatever color your saddle, your pants will match.

Doesnt white get a little transparent when it gets wet? thus white for wet t-shirt contests. That would probably make white worse than red.

Just reading this thread made me laugh. I feel bad for the guy in the red/white 2nd from the left. Looks like he's all berries, not that I was looking.
