I wanted to tell this story for a while, since it's the best compliment I've ever gotten on my kilt. I thought I'd see what other good ones folks have gotten.

When I was in grad school at Western Kentucky, I was walking across campus one afternoon and two guys were walking past me the opposite direction. They were wearing big baggy jeans with Tommy Hilfiger and FUBU shirts, lots of jewelry, and basically really showing the hip-hop style. As we passed each other, one of them made some kind of sign with his hand (I could tell exactly what), held it up, and looking at me said, "Represent!" (which, if you aren't familiar is basically hip-hop slang for showing pride in whatever your background/style is).

I really thought it was great and the by far the best and most unique compliment I've ever had.
