I agree that it looks most distinguished on you sir. My own kilts migrate from the top to the bottom of the knee. When I wore my perfectly custom tailored Freedom Kilt to my usual haunt two sundays past, the first comment I got was, "Love the mini!"

An alternative to hemming that I have indulged in recently on a couple of ebay won kilts is to run a double straight stitch round the intended hem length, cut the excess material off about a half inch below that and then pull out all of the horizontal threads. This gives you a fringe round the bottom and saves the expense or trouble of hemming. Definetely non-traditional, but cool.

Learn from the past but live in the present, I say. And kilt on, dude.
