Yes there is, although I wouldn't over-do it too much because you will miss out on the other thief skills. Having 100% in Hiding in Shadows doesn't mean you will will be 100% successful. Wearing any type of armor will give a -% to the equation. So having more than 100% will work to off-set the armor penalty enough to be close to perfect. I can't remember the details exactly, but heavier armor will give a greater penalty to your skills and there will always be at least a small chance of autofailure for some things like Hiding in Shadows.
