Avoid puppeteer detection

Question

Is there any way to avoid being detected by a website that I am using puppeteer? I just can't navigate around the https://www.footlocker.ca/ website using puppeteer. I have tried using stealth plugin and random user-agents to no avail.

Any advice on what else I can try?

This website use navigator.webdriver to check if you are real user or bot. so you can use the code below to delete navigator.webdriver value. docs.

const puppeteer = require("puppeteer");

(async () => {
  const browser = await puppeteer.launch({
    headless: false,
  });

  const page = await browser.newPage();

  await page.evaluateOnNewDocument(() => {
    delete navigator.__proto__.webdriver;
  });

  await page.goto("https://www.footlocker.ca", {
    waitUntil: "domcontentloaded",
  });
})();
