Can this jacket be worn by women?

How should I wash this fleece jacket?

Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. If necessary, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a wax-based lubricant to the teeth.
Jacket feels too tight
Ensure you are wearing appropriate base layers. Consider if a larger size would be more comfortable for your intended use, as this jacket has a snug fit.
Pilling on the fabric surface
Fleece fabric can naturally develop minor pilling over time. To minimize this, follow care instructions carefully, especially regarding washing and tumble drying on low heat. A fabric shaver can be used to remove existing pills.
Reduced warmth after washing
Ensure the jacket is completely dry before wearing. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can sometimes reduce the insulating properties of fleece. Check that the care label instructions have been followed precisely.
