White Bar tape recommendations

Am looking to re-tape my bars and am considering homming it up with a bit of white, any recommendations for which to use for good comfort and which does not get dirty quickly?

I have tried the coloured ITM tape on my single speed and am not impressed.

Thoughts please.

    I have the Fizik carbon look white tape and it very comfortable, though does get grubby, though if your thinking about going white i'm sure you won't mind cleaning it every so often..

    I use the Fizik tape in white - but is very thin, so it might be worth putting some padding underneath. It is very good tape.
    I like bikes...

    Fizik tape or Cinelli cork. Generally, the very cheap tapes don't feel too great.

    The deda chrome tape i have on my beloved winter bike, is very easy to keep clean although is slippery if wearing woolly winter gloves.

    So Deda, Cinelli or Fizik are all good IME.
