The Hat Stand is a blunt weapon available to the Hero in Dead Island. They can most commonly be found in the Hotel during Act I, Police Station during Act II, and the Laboratory during Act III.

Hat stands, like other basic weapons in the game, do not scale their stats with a character's level making them all but useless by the time the player starts finding them. In addition, they cannot be modified, cannot be upgraded, cannot be repaired at a work bench, and upon reaching 0% durability will simply be discarded by the Hero.
