You handled it well. I also like to wear my kilt at the top of the knee and I've had a few similar experiences but never by anyone so rude. I have noticed that the three kilts I've been actually measured by a Scottish salesman I've had to insist I want it to the top of the knee and not mid-knee. I find mid-knee to be irritating.

This weekend I attended the Virginia Scottish Games and while sitting at my clan tent began to notice that a lot of men wore their kilts below the knee. As I sat there I began to count: those who wore it just covering the knee or above, and those who wore it below the knee (I didn't count bandsmen, those in sport-kilts, or young boys). After about 10 minutes it was about 1:4. Almost all were wearing their kilt on their hips, like a pair of pants.
