The seat covers I sat on were usually brown or green with the exception of the cusion on the dingy pack which was often yellow. This is because being yellow and the fact if is still strapped to your bum when you eject and you keep it, it can be used as a location aid.

Some of them also had a pair of gloves inside if you opened them up!
