Strangely every instance of the google font Work Sans displays as BOLD instead of 200 when Toolset is enabled.

Link to a page where the issue can be seen:
hidden link

I expect to see:
font-weight: 200;

Instead, I get:
BOLD

Hi,

Thank you for contacting us and I'd be happy to assist.

I've reviewed the styles of the website's homepage, but couldn't find any abnormality.

For example, the headings used on the page with the font 'Work Sans' are bold as expected, but the top navigation menu items use the same font, in regular (200) weight.

Can you please share some examples screenshots, to narrow down exactly which section is using the 'bold' weight? I'll be in a better position to suggest the next steps, accordingly.

regards,
Waqar

Weird, the home page isn't showing it now but when you click on any of the links in the header, and you will see that the menu goes to bold. Nothing should be displayed bold!

For Example:
hidden link

I should also mention the previous screenshot was via Chrome.

This issue seems to fix itself when Toolset is disabled.
Same issue is prevalent on FireFox.

I also saw some weird stuff on Safari where the body font was not Open Sans. Please advise 🙂

Seems to be a caching issue. Will reach out if it happens again.
