I've had similar experiences in stores... and with adults as well as kids. They remember.
It's lesson one in "thinking outside of the box"... and realizing that there's more interesting things in the world than what they've been told.

I don't know what his father told him, but I can only assume that it was something positive.

It sure sounds like the youngter's father had positive comments about the kilt. The young man will remember it, and will be able to educate others when he hears a remark such as "that man is wearing a skirt."
About a week ago, I was walking past the playground at one of our parks, when a woman who was home schooling her son ask me if that was a kilt I was wearing. I replied that it was, and she asked if it was Irish. I replied yes (I was wearing my Ireland's National). She brought her son over to look at the kilt, and I pointed out the colors and explained that the kilt was in the colors of the Irish flag. I also told them that there are Scottish kilts, and the patterns in a kilt usually have some meaning. She told her son to remember this when they studied about Ireland. So here is one more young man that will most likely remember what a kilt is.
