⚠️ Limitations

• Rate limits — Zalando may throttle heavy scraping. Use delays and moderate page counts.
• Anti-detection — built-in, but not guaranteed. For high-volume use, consider Apify proxy.
• CSS selectors — Zalando uses Web Components with hashed class names; selectors are pattern-based and may need updates after site redesigns.
• Detail pages — fetchDetails adds ~2-5s per listing and increases memory usage.
