A leather wrap won't prevent the button from being pressed. Most sleeves have a window to allow pressing the button.

Don't know about women's pants differing from men's, but I carry my Provari in my front pants pocket, not the back. Never had an experience of the Provari firing unintentionally in a pocket.

As stated above, you can put the Provari in "standby mode" with 9 clicks to prevent accidental firing of the atomizer.

It's not so much the firing I'm concerns about, I guess. I've had my VV sizzle on me once! Smelled pretty good at first...it was CLS :)

I'm worry more about the button hitting the edge of my pocket when I slip it in my pocket. If you've ever worn a ring that is a little tall, you might notice how it gets stuck for a moment when you reach in your pocket??? I don't want to aggravate the firing button.

Hope that makes sense!

Both Parish and Serenity Gear make sleeves out of heavy enough leather that I doubt the botton would get fired with a PV in them in a back pocket. My examples from both are made from leather thicker then the button sticks out from the side of the PV, so the buttons are actually recessed down in the cutout's for them some.

With many folks that seem to constantly drop their Provari's (I've never dropped any mod)... if I were one of them I'd be more concerned about sitting down and breaking a topper off if in a front or back pocket. My sleeves are all for mini's with ext caps, and I wear them on adjustable QD heavy duty flat nylon neck lanyards that have a safety break away at back, then stuff them in a front shirt pocket to ward off the weight and swinging around. Has been a great hands free way to carry and protect them from harm.

I don't think it's anything to worry about. When I take my ProVari in and out of my Serenity sleeve, the button needs to be pushed in so it fires for a couple of seconds. Like Spydro said, the Serenity sleeves are heavy leather and if I put my finger over the leather where the button hole is the button doesn't get pressed in. The leather is that thick.

This sounds exactly what I want! I would like the button recessed so you can't fire it when you just run your finger over it or slide it in your back pocket!!

Thanks a bunch!!!
