I keep unshredded oak leaves in a wire bin for years sometimes, and sometimes I shred them ( in the leaf vacuum). Either way, I use them in the fall as a mulch over garlic and favas in raised beds. I don't use those beds in summer because it is too hot and dry. Seems to me when I go back there to plant favas in the fall, I don't see many recognizable leaves.
