New Retailers Open at CoolSprings Galleria
Express & Shady Rays
Franklin, TN (August 21, 2025) – CoolSprings Galleria is excited to announce that Express has reopened at the mall and is located on the upper level between Hollister and Hallmark. From everyday style to work wear & special occasions, Express has a variety of clothing options for both Men & Women.
That’s not all. Shady Ray, an innovative eyewear company featuring polarized shades, is also now open at CoolSprings Galleria on the lower level near The Apple Store.
"Franklin and the greater Nashville area are home to customers who truly get what Shady Rays is all about," said Shady Rays Founder and CEO Chris Ratterman. "Whether they're out for an afternoon on the town in downtown Nashville, hiking the beautiful Tennessee mountains, out on the water, or just living their everyday lives with style, our customers here know that great sunglasses are essential for looking good and protecting their eyes no matter what they're doing."
This is the first Shady Rays location in Tennessee, outside of Pigeon Forge, and the store showcases the brand’s extensive collection of premium polarized sunglasses and snow goggles through innovative displays designed to help customers find the perfect eyewear for their lifestyle.
