I've worn the nike frees for 6 months or so. So far I've tried running in pegasus kinvaras and a flat. Every single one has caused upper arch pain in my right foot. Has anyone experienced this and knows how to get rid of it?

If the frees worked so well, why did you switch?

It's equally possible you're getting delayed onset residual pain from the Frees if you're used to something with more substance. Do you still wear Frees at all? When did the pain start relative to your use of those various shoes?
That's why I rotate my shoes every day. I dont want my feet to get used to a particular shoe which can cause strength and weakness in various parts of the foot. I dont have any set plan. I just wear whatever turns me on that day but it is always different from what I have worn recently.
Pain started the exact day I switched to new shoes, about 40 min into run. Has happened 3 times. I switched because I'm tired of the nike frees. My new kinvara's ( for as much as I could wear them) feel 10x better and so much faster.
The thing is I could run in any of these shoes before with no problem.

ran in nike frees for over 6 months exclusively. switch to flats and then kinvaras. no problems. I have generally flat feet.
really liked the feeling of older nike frees (3.0 v2), was going to check out the new 3.0s.
really best thing to do is rotate as mentioned above and run in different brands.
not sure what your problem is, but I don't think it's something you can blame nike for.
