Fonts not loading when used subdomain

My project has a problem to load a custom font via font-face. This is happening only when I use my subdomain (static.domain.com) for static resources.
The HTTP server response is 200/OK, but the request in Chrome DevTools is red and the size as 0 bytes, but I can not understand why.

enter image description here

My css for loading the fonts:

@font-face {
    font-family: 'flexslider-icon';
    src:url('fonts/flexslider-icon.eot');
    src:url('fonts/flexslider-icon.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
        url('fonts/flexslider-icon.woff') format('woff'),
        url('fonts/flexslider-icon.ttf') format('truetype'),
        url('fonts/flexslider-icon.svg#flexslider-icon') format('svg');
    font-weight: normal;
    font-style: normal;
}

The only notable difference between requests are cookies, that request without the subdomain cookies are not in the request (recalling, that is the goal of using a subdomain requests for static resources).

As the answer given by @aalih in comments, the solution is here:
@font-face fonts only work on their own domain
