Solution

Convert your image src https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0234/8017/2591/products/young-man-in-bright-fashion_925x_f7029e2b-80f0-4a40-a87b-834b9a283c39.jpg into Base64 ULR format and than convert Base64 URL into javaScript File Object.

***Here is the code for converting "image source" (url) to "Base64".***

let url = 'https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0234/8017/2591/products/young-man-in-bright-fashion_925x_f7029e2b-80f0-4a40-a87b-834b9a283c39.jpg'
const toDataURL = url => fetch(url)
      .then(response => response.blob())
      .then(blob => new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
      const reader = new FileReader()
      reader.onloadend = () => resolve(reader.result)
      reader.onerror = reject
      reader.readAsDataURL(blob)
     }))


***Here is code for converting "Base64" to javascript "File Object".***

  function dataURLtoFile(dataurl, filename) {
     var arr = dataurl.split(','), mime = arr[0].match(/:(.*?);/)[1],
     bstr = atob(arr[1]), n = bstr.length, u8arr = new Uint8Array(n);
     while(n--){
     u8arr[n] = bstr.charCodeAt(n);
     }
   return new File([u8arr], filename, {type:mime});
  }


*** Calling both function ***

  toDataURL(url)
  .then(dataUrl => {
     console.log('Here is Base64 Url', dataUrl)
     var fileData = dataURLtoFile(dataUrl, "imageName.jpg");
     console.log("Here is JavaScript File Object",fileData)
     fileArr.push(fileData)
   })
