Abstract: In the present paper, we obtain explicit formulae for geodesics in some left-invariant sub-Finsler problems on Heisenberg groups $mathbb{H}_{2n+1}$. Our main assumption is the following: the compact convex set of unit velocities at identity admits a generalization of spherical coordinates. This includes convex hulls and sums of coordinate 2-dimensional sets, all left-invariant sub-Riemannian structures on $mathbb{H}_{2n+1}$, and unit balls in $L_p$-metric for $1lepleinfty$. In the last case, extremals are obtained in terms of incomplete Euler integral of the first kind.
