I've had my Keens for almost 3 years now. They're in great shape, and I have NOT been gentle with them. They've finally developed a little odor lately, so last week I threw them in the washing machine with a load of rags (cleats and all!) and they look like new.
Wow!

Mine have the odor problem as well. I really noticed it when I whipped off my shoe to show the cleat to a student in my spin class and bout fell over from the smell lol.

Well, Keens are tough. I've never thought about the washing machine though, hmm.
