No, it’s not threads. Here’s a closer picture: makingitsew.com/…/illustrator_command_ops_pattern…
They might use some kind of mask to spray something on. I tried to replicate it by printing TPU to fabric, but TPU can be hard to work with for such fine details.

Haven’t watched the show yet but that’s some Harry Potter looking shit.

Yep! That’s what I meant with SNW keeping the detail in. It’s not quite as obvious as the DSC gold on navy but it’s a really really cool touch and update to the classic design.
