Anyone have any idea what "flat toe seam" on a pair of stockings means? Thanks in advance.

Hmmm, never heard of that before today.

After doing some research it appears that a flat toe seam is a seam that is stitched by hand to provide greater comfort and fit. If you look at most pantyhose and stockings you'll see the toe seams sticking out a bit. This causes skin irritation and/or blisters. The flat seam is a much closer fit and therefore better for her foot.
