To cut a long story short I went to J D Williams to buy some trainer socks. They had ones that were perfect for what I wanted.
But they were sold in packs of 5. Carefully checked it was 5 socks not 5 pairs.
How many feet do they think their customers have?
I bought 2 packs so I will have 5 pairs as I only have 2 feet not 5 or 2.5 of them

Tell us what arrives.
Bet you the description was written by some numpty and you'll get two packs of five pairs of socks.

Almost certainly. Think I probably would have spoken to them on live chat or emailed before buying to clarify.

I can live with 5 or 10 pairs. The photo was 5 socks as was the write up. So expecting 5 pairs in total and some cashback eventually

You can expect them to be in pairs, as in two - one for each foot.

She's got two left feet so as long as they are all for left feet she will be OK

There's 3 feet in a yard, so that leaves a pair for whoever's not in the yard.

Is this a British yard or an American yard which we would call a garden?
