Maklaud x El Bomber Infernum Shisha

Maklaud x El Bomber Infernum Shisha: fire and speed in 333 pieces

The Maklaud x El Bomber Infernum shisha was born from a collaboration, and you can tell at first glance. Flames cast in bronze leap along the stem, the ornament curls like burnt-rubber swirls and a row of skulls closes the composition at the bottom. The world it draws on is speed, asphalt and engines — a vocabulary rarely seen in hookah, handled here with the finish level of a small-format sculpture. The series is limited to 333 pieces and was released in July 2026.

A compact 49 cm format, built to be used

At 49 cm tall, this shisha sits in the most versatile size there is: present enough to hold the centrepiece role on a coffee table, compact enough to carry to a friend's place or to store without taking up a whole shelf. This is not a display object you hesitate to bring out — it is an everyday shisha, whose format makes filling the base, cleaning and storing genuinely easy.

A purge hidden in the relief work

True to the house signature, the purge is built into the body of the shisha, tucked away inside the raised decoration. No visible valve to break the line of the design: the air pushed out of the base escapes through the ornament itself. The gesture stays the one every regular knows — a short blow into the mouthpiece to refresh the air between sequences and go back to clean flavours. A spare valve ball is included, the small part you always end up looking for at the wrong moment.

A removable diffuser for a softer draw

The removable diffuser screws onto the bottom of the downstem and breaks up the airflow as it enters the water. In practice: finer bubbles, a smoother pull and a clearly quieter session — welcome in a flat as much as on a terrace. And since it comes off in seconds, you can go back at will to the firmer draw and the characteristic water rumble of a set-up without a diffuser. Two behaviours in one shisha, depending on the mood of the evening.

Stainless steel, bronze and an engineering polymer base

The split of materials follows how the piece is used. The stem combines stainless steel and bronze; the downstem and the bowl and hose connectors are stainless steel, a material that does not rust, adds no metallic taste to the vapour and cleans with warm water. The charcoal tray is engraved stainless steel, in a pattern that answers the one on the body of the shisha: wide, easy to wipe down, ready to take tongs and charcoal. The bottom plate is made of engineering polymer — a smart choice that lightens the whole and takes knocks far better than a metal part would. The base is glass, and the mouthpiece blends stainless steel and bronze to stay in the graphic line of the model.

What you receive

The shisha is delivered with its Soft Touch silicone hose and handle, a soft grip that holds no flavours from one session to the next and rinses out in seconds, the steel and bronze mouthpiece, the charcoal tongs, the removable diffuser and the bowl and base grommets. The bowl is not included: it is up to you to choose the one that matches your way of packing — a clay phunnel to hold the juices and extend flavour life, or a multi-chimney bowl if you prefer short, intense sessions.

Who this shisha is for

This is probably the most accessible way into the brand's signed pieces. It speaks to intermediate enthusiasts who want a shisha with real graphic character without stepping into collector's-piece budgets, to collectors drawn by a short run, and to anyone who reacts to motorcycle, tuning and flame imagery. Its 49 cm format and polymer base also make it a sound choice for travelling — evenings at friends', terraces, weekends away.

Expert tip for a successful session

Start with the diffuser fitted: it is the most comfortable setting, the one that gives a smooth pull and a discreet session. Fill the base so the downstem is submerged by 2 to 3 cm — no more, or you needlessly stiffen the draw. On the bronze, avoid abrasive products and acidic detergents: a soft, slightly damp cloth followed by immediate drying is enough after each session. The stem, the downstem and the diffuser, for their part, rinse with warm water and a soft brush, with the diffuser taken off so you can reach the perforations properly.
