I can remember when the text said that any time your movement is hampered or you are encumbered you will lose your wisdom bonus to AC, but I can't seem to find that text anymore.
As a DM, I can't justify a monk getting his full AC bonus when he is partially covered in the equivalent of hardened Plaster of Paris, and has his base movement speed hampered as well.
Am I just being a stickler for the old 3.5 rules or does a rule like that actually exist in Pathfinder?
AC Bonus (Ex): When unarmored and unencumbered, the monk adds his Wisdom bonus (if any) to his AC and his CMD. In addition, a monk gains a +1 bonus to AC and CMD at 4th level. This bonus increases by 1 for every four monk levels thereafter, up to a maximum of +5 at 20th level.These bonuses to AC apply even against touch attacks or when the monk is flat-footed. He loses these bonuses when he is immobilized or helpless, when he wears any armor, when he carries a shield, or when he carries a medium or heavy load.
