The name "Level 27" comes from Billy Martin's lucky number "27" and "Level" being a video game reference. The brand has many different styles of clothing and designs. All designs are created by Billy Martin himself. Martin jokingly said that the reason for starting the company was because "we're not really good at playing guitar so we need other things to occupy us."

The Closing of Level 27
On December 22, 2009 Billy Martin announced via Twitter and the clothing line's homepage that the clothing line will not continue into 2010. When he started the company with Steve it was meant to be a creative outlet for their art and has done well in serving that purpose. Both now have websites where their artwork can be purchased and/or viewed. Both Billy and Steve are moving onto different projects. Billy now has his art website bloodzilla.myshopify.com and Steve has his cartoon show Supa Pirate Booty Hunt where he does the voice of Daniel the Turtle www.supapiratebootyhunt.com
Billy mentioned that he never meant to be a clothing designer but the experience has been a great and rewarding time. He also mentioned that Level 27 opened up the door to many new opportunities to show his creativity.
As a show of support to their customers all items were marked down to 99 cents through the end of December.
