"Proud pops moment for me creating these shoes for @zayawade," the former Miami Heat player wrote in the caption. He included the hashtags #pride and #wow8, referencing his brand. He also included a rainbow emoji.

Since Wade's daughter, Zaya, 12, whom he shares with ex-wife, came out as transgender in February, the basketball star has been outspoken about his unwavering support for her.

"We are proud parents of a child in the LGBTQ community and we're proud allies as well," Wade told Ellen DeGeneres in an interview in February.

Wade has two sons, Zaire and Xavier, as well as another daughter named Kaavia. Wade and his wife, Gabrielle Union, had Kaavia in 2018 via surrogate. The basketball star also has custody of his nephew, Dahveon.

In March, Wade, Union, and Zaya walked the red carpet together at the Truth Awards in Los Angeles, an event which honors the achievements of the black LGBTQ community.

Wade and Zaya appear to share a love of style.

In May, Wade showed off on Instagram his newly dyed fire-red locks, which matched his daughter's pink mane.

"What's the point in being on this earth if you're going to try to be someone you're not?" Zaya told Wade in a video, which Union shared on Twitter, in February. "It's like you're not even living as yourself, which is the dumbest concept to me. It's just be true and don't really care what the stereotypical way of being you is."
