What are some brands that sell low-rise pants/jeans/leggings? A 7 inch front rise hits me at the belly button which is as high as I can go.

Due to a variety of reasons, I have a tender and bloated tummy. I wear foldover yoga pants and skirts at home and for running around. I used to have luck finding jeans at American Eagle but their washes are too casual even for my very casual lab environment.
Examples of pants that I like if they came in a low enough rise:
