Question Title What is a convertible flap besom pocket? Does this mean that the flap can be taken off somehow?

A "convertible besom flap" means that you can wear the tuxedo two different ways.  You can wear the tuxedo with the flaps of the pockets hanging down ... or if you prefer, you can tuck the flap pockets into the besom pocket and then you get the look of a tuxedo with double besom pockets.  For reference, the majority of tuxedos do not have flaps and have what is called a double besom pocket.  This is when your pocket appears to be a slit with small satin strip accents on the pockets.
